Stylistic and interpretative particularities of the Chamber Repertory for Viola in the 20th century

Abstract

At the beginning of the 20th century, the soloist perspectives for the viola acquired new dimensions after the works composed by Paul Hindemith, Max Reger, Dmitri Shostakovich and Béla Bartók. The viola was increasingly present on the great stages as a soloist instrument. Our study will focus not only on the creation of composers Dmitri Shostakovich and Béla Bartók, but also on the legacy of authentic musical emotions, as well as on the synthesis of language elements, of compositional structures manifest in musical history up to these two famous composers.
