SYNCHRONISM AND SPECIFICITY IN THE LANGUAGE OF THE ROMANIAN COMPOSERS OF THE SECOND HALF OF THE XXTH CENTURY
Abstract
From a general perspective, the Romanian composers of the second half of XX century felt themselves united to a certain synchronistic spirit of the musicians from the Western Europe (and not only them), being polarized by the imperative to create a synthesis, essentially based on the fusion of three factors: 1. The assimilation of composition techniques universally recognized; 2. The valorisation of the autochthone modal-archaic potential; 3. The personal, authentic infusion of the creator. In this context, two strategic directions were featured for the evolution of the musical language: the (neo) modal thinking and the sound syntaxes. According to these general marks, our study identifies three of the most original contributions of the Romanian composers: 1. the music based on the mathematical organization of modal systems (Wilhelm Georg Berger – sectio aurea and Anatol Vieru – sets, rows, group's theory; 2. the morphogenetic music (Aurel Stroe); 3. The heterophonic music (Ştefan Niculescu).
