About Ligeti Essays
Ligeti Essays (2005) is a compilation of three song cycles written by the late György Ligeti throughout his long career, to the poetry of fellow Hungarian, Sandor Weöres. As a composer, Ligeti used sources from all schools of thought to create some of the most arresting music of the late 20th century. In the songs that make up Ligeti Essays, Ligeti uses haiku like compression to reveal different states of mind - from the sarcastic and humorous to the trivial or languorous. The dancers capture thought through movement based on a curvilinear, calligraphic dance vocabulary punctuated by rough, raw accents.
