Description:
This is a collection of choral works by two 20th century Hungarian composers, Kodály and Ligeti. Both of them also wrote many choral works. Kodály's choral works range from those with an early Romantic sound to those influenced by Hungarian folk music in his mature period. The sparkling melody of the small cantata "Matrai kepek Matra no e" on this album leaves a particularly strong impression. Many of the works Ligeti wrote for a cappella choir were composed during his stay in Budapest in the 1950s. While based on folk songs, his works with tone clusters and onomatopoeia are a challenge to the limits of his own compositional techniques. This is also evident in his use of micropolyphony (a technique in which many parts move together in complex, finely tuned movements, making the whole sound like a cluster) in "Lux Aeterna Eternal Light," which was used in the film "2001: A Space Odyssey.Ligeti's works since then have changed to be more familiar to the ear, and the "Three Fantasias by Friedrich Helderlin" from the 1980s shows Ligeti's mature style of giving melody to all voices without using micropolyphony, despite the 16-part structure. These are all difficult works to perform, but the Danish National Vocal Ensemble, conducted by Marcus Creed, who has also given masterful performances on the SWR label, gives them a wide range of expression with plenty of technical latitude. The high-quality recording by producer Michael Emery and engineer Mikkel Nymand is also noteworthy. Naxos Japan
