HUNGARIAN COMPOSERS 24

Erzsébet Szőnyi’s arc poetica as a composer was defined by the concious searching and caring for the relationship with the public.

Her creative viewpoint is characterised by an interest in both conservatism and more recent trends, and it is this that gives a multi-colouredness to her style and a wealth of genres to her ouvre. Her creativity cannot be placed into any of the compositional trend groups of the 20th-century Hungarian music. The reason most of her oeuvre is still waiting to be discovered is that she is known in music circles first and foremost for her passionate music pedagogy and her diplomacy work in music. Her pedagogical oeuvre is a truly unique feature in Hungarian music education. This monograph of Erzsébet Szőnyi’s career as a composer also includes a list of works and writings by her and a selected bibliography.
