“Our Music Director, Maestro Rostropovich, has been informed of this project and sends his warmest best wishes and asks me to continue discussion with you on his behalf.
The concept ... of Dynamic Space Stereophony could, in my estimate, be the first advance in recording to have occurred in many, many years.
I can truthfully say that the National Symphony Orchestra is very interested in further exploring the possibility of the National Symphony’s being involved in this historic project and being the pioneer orchestra in the United States.”

DYNAMIC SPACE STEREOPHONY®:

Vladimir Ashkenazy
In a public recommendation for Peter Huebner’s activity he writes:
“I fully support Peter Huebner’s scientific approach to explore the natural relationship between music and human health and behaviour: three decades of work which finally found its expression in his Medical Resonance Therapy Music®.
Music plays a very important role in our life – whether or not we are aware of it. And different types and structures of music can have a highly negative or beneficial effect – not only on the psyche of an individual but on a whole spectrum of a psychological and emotional climate of our society.
I hope that all those who want to contribute to a natural state of harmony – individually and socially – will focus on Peter Huebner’s scientific work and the achievements of his Medical Resonance Therapy Music® and become aware of their tremendous importance.”

“It was great pleasure to meet with you and to have the opportunity to speak together as well as listen to excerpts from your symphonies.
The music intrigued me, especially your unique manner of combining orchestral and vocal forces into one organic entity.
As Music Director of the Haifa Symphony Orchestra as well as the National Choir of Israel – Rinat – I would like to express my interest in the possibility of performing and recording one of your three symphonies with the above mentioned orchestra and choir.
My heartiest congratulations on your formidable musical accomplishments.”

Prof. Dr. Rudolf Haase
in a letter to Peter Huebner:
“For many years I have been playing your composition ‘The Song of Life’ to my students, a significant example of that, and how harmonical fundamentals derived by nature can be used as a basis for composition today.
My ‘Fundamental Harmonical Research’ is part of the music therapy course and of the curriculum in 5 departments (faculties at the University of Music in Vienna, which with around 3000 students and 400 lecturers, is the largest in the world).
I am particularly interested in your ‘Music and Health’ project… actually the objective of my career at the University of Music in Vienna focused on providing a scientific basis for the music therapy education introduced in Vienna … You will now have a better understanding of why I am interested in your project: the possibility of a co-operation with my Institute exists. In any event, I can only provide encouragement for your project and would be delighted to see it supported from as many angles as possible.
Given my 25 years experience, I can really encourage you to realise similar efforts … in your planned music faculty and would be happy to provide any advice in this respect.”

Prof. Dr. Herzl Shmueli
in a letter to Peter Huebner:
“I have studied your wide range of research with great interest and appreciation. I am particularly interested in the continuing developments of Micro Music Laboratories® from which you are creating a scientific basis for inter-disciplinary music research and which extend to all areas of music and various sciences. I am pleased that the areas of emphasis are in music and medicine, music and psychology and music and education.
When I think about your unique musical career and achievements, I am convinced that you are on the verge of raising the understanding of music and of the history of music onto a new level. Your compositions and scientific musical work “Natural Music Creation” and “Natural Music Hearing” and also your study guide of a music faculty of the future particularly impress me. They are unprecedented and open up new dimensions in creating a musical training, which could be pioneering for a revival and expansion of the science of music.
It would be a major coup for the University of Tel Aviv, if, despite your many and varied activities as a composer, author and researcher, you could think about creating a musical training course as a guest professor at our university in the field of interdisciplinary studies.
