| [ Leos Janacek ] [ FUMC Graham ] | |
Leos Janacek is a big name in Czech
music.
He was born and taught under the hold of post-romanticism, but he was a great
figure in twentieth-century music. I am currently writing an in-depth
paper on "The Programmatic Orchestral Works of Leos Janacek," and
Janacek is proving to be just as interesting as his new theories and his works.
The main work I am focusing on is Taras Bulba, a tone poem based on a
Russian novelette by Gogol.
