Trojahn, Manfred (1949-)

Description:

The "songs" of voice and wind instruments explore new expressions of string quartet Manfred Troyan, born in Kremlingen, Germany in 1949, is a composer, flutist, and conductor. His style is post-modern, at a time when composers of the avant-garde generation and beyond were exploring individual musical languages. Troyan was not comfortable with atonal music and was strongly inspired by the Romantic composers. The sixth movement, a homage to Beethoven, is not a simple one, with its ironic narrative. The appearance of mezzo-soprano and clarinet in the second, fourth, and fifth movements is also impressive. King International
