In recent years, the President of the German Music Council in office had made the headlines for officially accusing the new German classical composer we just quoted of incapability and deception. The SPIEGEL reported about this case in a four-page article.

Prof. Dr. Mueller-Heuser was also principal of the University for Music in Cologne. During 1965-1969 Peter Hübner was registered at this university, but was exempt from the entire university studies, as a result of the scores presented, and able to use all facilities and equipment in the university (within the context of extraordinary exception procedures granted by Johannes Rau, at that time Minister of Science for the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia, and by the head of the Music University).

The President of the German Music Council and/or Principal of the University of Music in Cologne, Prof. Dr. Mueller-Heuser, now thought that he had to declare publicly through the left-wing German Lutheran Church magazine the SPIEGEL that Peter Hübner had in fact never been registered at the University of Music in Cologne – implying that this part of his biography published by the international music-publishers Aar Edition was a lie and a deception:

However, then it was established that Aar Edition’s report had been absolutely correct – meaning Prof. Dr. Mueller-Heuser’s publication had been a lie, and that the President of the German Music Council together with the SPIEGEL was trying to publicly denigrate the classical composer and musicologist Peter Hübner, and to deny the public the truth about the musical career of the most successful contemporary classical composer.

The fact that he was spreading these tall stories aiming at a public defamation has now catapulted Prof. Dr. Mueller-Heuser from his lucrative and image seeking music posts – at least that of the Head of the University of Music in Cologne, as well as the President of the German Music Council.
