He is  perhaps best known for his group Concentus Musicus Wien which he

Interesting melange of languages.  If the Latin Concentus Musicus  had
been picked for the group, why not go all the way to Vindobona, the
Latin for Vienna?
 
So:  Concentus Musicus Vindobona.
 
 
In any case may he rest in peace.
 
 
David Strang - Who remembers sipping the local wine high over Vienna 
                       in Grinzing, and who has a deed to one grey tile in 
the
                       reconstruction of the roof of Saint Stephen's 
Cathedral
                       after the damage during WW-2.
