"Messiaen's ""Vingt Regards sur l'Enfant-Jesus"": A historical and pedagogical study"

Abstract

dc:description

In the preface to the score of Vingt Regards, Olivier Messiaen states that in the composition he was searching for a language of mystical love. With that preface, the investigator explained how this programmatic piano cycle can be interpreted by the performer and listener. Messiaen's musical language and the representation of its religious symbolism in the score were examined.
