The death of Gyorgy Ligeti (1923 - 2006)

category international | arts and media | other press author Tuesday June 13, 2006 03:40author by obit Report this post to the editors

Gyorgy Ligeti one of the late 20th ventury composers died on the 12th of June 2006 in Austria where he held citizenship. Born in Transylvania in 1923, a Hungarian Jew of the post Austro-Hungarian Empire he overcame an early disability which caused him to look like Transylvanian to compose quite good music. Good enough to get into movies like 2001 Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick the man who faked the Moon Landing videos. Everyone who met Gyorgy Ligeti liked him. His rythms were cool. He'll be sincerely missed. He made friends. He wrote a piece for 100 metronomes (putting the itch into ticking things). No-one had a bad word to say about him. Professor Ligeti was in no common sense of the word a popular man. & sincere with it.

Here are some sites to learn more about the music & maybe hear more of it. ( Put it in adverts.)
RIP Gyorgy Ligeti
