Why haven't I heard this before? This is a major 20th Century cello composition. Yes, it's derivative of Bartok, but it stands on its own. I love Ligeti AND Bartok. The first movement brought me to tears!
Interesting and comparatively accessible work by the composer, renowned and revered for his avant-grade composition. Tonal language like this is common in early works of such composers, and sometimes a style they return to in the autumn of their careers.
Did anybody already notice a resemblance between the theme of this sonata and the singing part in Bowie's Warszawa? I know Bowie took it from a polish choir but the resemblance is quite evident. sula vie dileeejoooo maliooo
Very tonal for Ligeti. Quite interesting.
