String Orchestra SKU: BT.EMBZ4330
Composed by Ferenc Farkas. EMB Leggiero. Educational Tool. Book Only. Composed 1963. 132 pages. Editio Musica Budapest #EMBZ4330. Published by Editio Musica Budapest (BT.EMBZ4330). This is one of the best-known and most frequently performed works of Ferenc Farkas (1905-2000). It was written in 1961 for 4-part string orchestra (with an ad libitum double bass part), and can be performed by a string quartet. The secret of the popularity of this 4-movement composition, which follows the structure of the classical symphonies, is probably to be found in its transparent sound, the clarity of its form and its fresh, vigorous character.
