Orchestra SKU: BT.EMBZ10012
Composed by Rudolf Maros. Book Only. Composed 1968. 56 pages. Editio Musica Budapest #EMBZ10012. Published by Editio Musica Budapest (BT.EMBZ10012). Cinque studi per orchestra (1959?60) clearly documents the process by which Maros - starting from Bartók's expressionist works written during the 1920s, especially The Miraculous Mandarin and The Night's Music -escaped from the earlier tonal, classicizing realm of music. The composition takes the form of a suite, with alternating notturno and scherzo movements. Decisive to the character of both are percussion instruments hitherto used solo only rarely in Hungarian orchestral practice. (Anna Dalos).
