Kerékfy Márton: Népzene és nosztalgia Ligeti György művészetében [Folk music and nostalgia in the works of György Ligeti] Rózsavölgyi és Társa Kiadó, 2018. Budapest. ISBN: 9786158053365. Kerékfy, with amazing analytic strength and the thoroughness of philology, explores the influence of Bartók and use of folk music motifs in Ligeti’s later works; includes detailed analysis of the Violin Concerto from 1992. Ligeti György (Dicsőszentmárton1923–2006 Vienna) was born in a Hungarian speaking secular Jewish family in Transylvania. He attended Romanian secondary school in Cluj, was sent to do forced labor in 1944 and emigrated to Austria in 1956. Printed here an article by Csont András from “Magyar Narancs” (2019/20)
