György Ligeti's String Quartet No. 1, titled ''Métamorphoses nocturnes'', was composed in 1953–54. It is thus representative of what the composer himself used to call "the prehistoric Ligeti", referring to the works he wrote before leaving Hungary in 1956.〔 〕 Ligeti was inspired to write this quartet by Bartók's two middle string quartets (the third and fourth), though he knew these works only from their scores, performances of them being banned under communist regimes at the time.〔 〕 It was premiered at the Vienna Musikverein on 8 May 1958 by the Ramor Quartet, an ensemble that had also fled into exile. The work is written in one continuous movement, which can be divided into seventeen contrasting sections:〔 # ''Allegro grazioso'' # ''Vivace, capriccioso'' # ''A tempo'' # ''Adagio, mesto'' # ''Presto – Prestissimo'' # ''molto sostenuto – Andante tranquillo'' # ''Più mosso'' # ''Tempo di Valse, moderato, con eleganza, un poco capriccioso'' # ''Subito prestissimo'' # ''Subito: molto sostenuto'' # ''Allegretto, un poco gioviale'' # ''Allarg. Poco più mosso'' # ''Subito allegro con moto, string. poco a poco sin al prestissimo'' # ''Prestissimo'' # ''Allegro comodo, gioviale # ''Sostenuto, accelerando – Ad libitum, senza misura'' # ''Lento'' The score is published by Schott Music.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 György Ligeti – String Quartet No. 1 )〕 ==References== 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「String Quartet No. 1 (Ligeti)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
