Description
Summary:Movingly genuine, pithy and comprehensive – these are maybe the best words that characterize the latest book of the music aesthete from Cluj, Ştefan Angi written about his colleague and contemporary, the Romanian composer of an international reputation, Cornel Ţăranu. The volume is not so a traditional biography or monography as a series of confessions exposed in the most various ways: a cavalcade of memories, interviews, essays and studies, critiques and chronicles and introductions to works. This variety of the reflections is probably the most suggestive way of revealing the composer’s several faces: the contrast between his jovial habit and the deepness, the seriousness of his music, the ancestral roots of his creation of a remarkable openness towards the new, his performing, pedagogical and other public activities outgrew from the imperative of composing and promoting contemporary music.
