His instrumentation, always in the service of expression, often explores interesting and unfamiliar sound colours — sometimes thick and full, other times randomly dispersed and mysterious."〔 ==Selected works == Much of Firšt's music is published by Društvo Slovenskih Skladateljev. * ''Love Song'' for 2 Violas (1988) * ''SSSSS'', Variations for Viola and Double Bass (1991) * ''Tres Faciunt Collegium'' for Clarinet, Viola and Piano (2001) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nenad Firšt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
