Max W. Schubel (April 11, 1932 – February 10, 2010) was an American composer of contemporary classical music. He is best known for being the founder and owner of Opus One records, a company he established in 1966 to record new music by lesser-known and emerging composers of avant-garde and contemporary classical music. He graduated from New York University in 1953. [1]
Schubel maintained homes in Napanoch, Town of Wawarsing, Ulster County, New York (living there from November through April) and Piscataquis County, Maine (living there from May 1 through October). He was survived by a daughter (with the designer Ursula Belden, 1944-2009), Willow Belden of Douglaston, New York, and a brother, Robert Schubel of Putnam Valley, New York. [2]
