Par LIGETI GYORGY. When Ligeti taught composition at the University of Stockholm in the 1960s, he met his famous Swedish fellow composer Hilding Rosenberg (1892-1985). Ligeti wrote this musical greeting on the occasion of Rosenberg's 90th birthday. The little piece is easy to play, composed in an extremely instrument-related manner and sounds really good. It shows that Ligeti, like Bach, Schumann …

Par HAND FREDERIC. On an invitation to Greece by the guitar duo Evangelos and Liza, Hand brought along his new Odyssey as a gift. 'The title refers both to my trip to Greece and also to the way in which the musical ideas interact with each other and evolve throughout their long journey,' he says.

Schumann's widow Clara and Johannes Brahms apparently fervently believed in the piece and organized a posthumous world premiere with f…
