In 1993 he is rewarded with the Prix de Composition Musicale by the Fondation Prince Pierre the Monaco for his "Grabstein für Stephan" and "Op. 27 No. 2(Double Concerto)". In the same year he is awarded the Herder Prize by the Freiherr-vom-Stein Stiftung, Hamburg and the Premio Feltrinelli by the Accademia dei Lincei, Rome. Also in 1993 he is invited to stay at the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin for two years as composer in residence with the Berliner Philharmoniker. In 1994 he receives two other prizes: the Austrian State Award for European Composers and the Denis de Rougemot Prize, bestowed on him by the European Association of Festivals. In 1995 he stays in Vienna for a year, composes and teaches master classes at the Wiener Konzerthaus. In 1996 the Hungarian state awards him with Kossuth Prize for his life achievements. He is invited in the same year by the Sociéte Gaviniés, the Royal Conservatory of the Hague, the Muziekcentrum Vredenburg Utrecht, the Concertgebouw NV Amsterdam, the Nederlandse Opera, the Schönberg Ensemble, the Asko ensemble, the Orlando Quartet, the Osiris Trio and Reinbert de Leeuw to stay in the Netherlands for two years.

In 1998 he receives the "Österreichisches Ehrenzeichen" by the Austrian Republic, the Music Prize of the Ernst von Siemens Stiftung, and the European Prize for Composition by the "Fördergemeinschaft der Europäischen Wirtschaft" and the "Fondation des Prix Européens". For the second time between 1998-1999 he is invited by the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin. In 1999 he is also invited by the Ensemble Intercontemporain, the Conservatoire of Paris, the Cité de la Musique, and the Festival d'Automne á Paris to stay in the French capital for two years.
