| Summary: | Romanian spirituality mirrored in “Three Musical Caricature - Soldiering” by Paul Constantinescu
Going through the historical stages of the Romanian musical culture in the last 100 years, we can observe a wide palette of stylistic orientations and directions, some of them connected with the traditional music, others linked with the idea of musical avant-garde through the great diversity and complex aesthetic. The Romanian composition school brought out musicians who marked decisive moments in the progress of the national musical culture. Paul Constantinescu is part of the generation that contributed, together with George Enesco, to the fulfilment of the ideal of building the real Romanian musical school. His entire musical works are marked by a language in which he combined in a special way elements of traditional music with those of Byzantine music. ‘Three Musical Caricature - Soldiering” is especially distinguished by the fact that it takes over the urban folklore (in this case, the soldier song that has spread widely in the interwar period) to which it attributes satirical connotations through original and particular forms of processing. |
