HUNGARIAN COMPOSERS 32

Pál Járdányi (1920–-1966) was one of the most distinguished figures in Hungarian music during the years following the Second World War.

He was an innovative researcher in the field of folkmusic, an eminent music critic, and a multifaceted teacher. Throughout a short creative life he pursued his own artistic and political beliefs, founded on the musical ideas of Bartók and Kodály. His most well known works are the Vörösmarty Symphony, the oratorio Előszó and choral works such as Hajnali tánc, Árva madár and Gergő nótái. His orchestral, chamber music and vocal compositions are also deserving of the attention of composers, music lovers, and historians of music alike.
