100th Birthday of György Ligeti

Today we remember the great composer György Ligeti (1923 – 2006) who was one of the most important musical figures of the 20th century.

Celebrate with us and enjoy this clip of members of the Lucerne Festival Contemporary Orchestra (LFCO) performing the Allegro grazioso from Ligeti's Six Bagatelles for Wind Quintet at Lucerne Festival Forward 2022.

This was part of the collage "In Search of György Ligeti's Lost Melody" by Patricia Kopatchinskaja, the recording of which will soon be published in its entirety.
