Hamburg Concerto

(with two basset horns and four obligato natural horns)
Product Details
Description
In his Hamburg Concerto written for Marie Luise Neunecker, György Ligeti, inspired by the tonal possibilities of the natural horn, explores alternatives to the well-tempered tonal system. In order to open up fresh harmonies, he juxtaposes the solo horn (alternating between valve horn F-Bb and natural horn in F) with four differently tuned natural horns in the orchestra. The resulting natural harmonics lead to fascinating floating chord combinations, and with Ligeti's use of non-European rhythmic patterns provide captivating contrasts with the choralelike passages in which the tonal spectra are given special emphasis.
