Kárpáti János: András Szőllősy
Hungarian Composers 4
könyv
Concerto III, which won first prize at the International Rostrum of Composers in Paris in 1970, signposted the road that would lead him to a place as one of the three stars in the constellation of contemporary Hungarian music: Kurtág, Ligeti and Szőllősy.In this volume of the “Hungarian Composers” series, the author gives us new insights into the personality and invention of the composers of large-scale orchestral works (Transfigurazioni, Musica per orchestra), vocal works for Britain’s King’s Singers (Fabula Phaedri and Miserere), and a chamber music masterpiece, the string quartet for Holland’s Orlando Quartet. A list of works, bibliography and a selection of Szőllősy’s writing on music, make for a revealing complement to the analysis of his oeuvre.
