About this arrangement

String orchestra SKU: FG.55011-333-6 Composed by Einojuhani Rautavaara. Study score. Fennica Gehrman #55011-333-6. Published by Fennica Gehrman (FG.55011-333-6). ISBN 9790550113336.A group in their own right is formed by the three string orchestra works written in memory of, and reverence for, Hungarian composers of great stature: Epitaph for Bela Bartok, Hommage a Zoltan Kodaly and a homage to Liszt, that virtuosic composer par excellence of the Romantic era. I have incorporated the two most essential characteristics of Liszt's music - luscious romanticism and virtuosic elan - into the mood and colourful spectrum of the string orchestra sound. Melodic and harmonic material dominated at first by an augmented fourth and laterby a perfect fourth forms the mainstay of the while work and provides a unifying element. (Einojuhani Rautavaara).
