Compositional Techniques Found in Three Orchestral Works of Gyorgy Ligeti

Abstract

dc:description

The text focuses on three works composed between 1966 and 1974. These include Cello concerto, Double Concerto for Flute and Oboe and San Francisco Polyphony. The analyses presented give special emphasis to the compositional techniques shared by the three works. Despite important stylistic developments which appeared during this period of Ligeti's career, certain techniques and tendencies remain relatively unchanged, providing a sense of stylistic continuity to his music.
