Entre avant-garde et trans-avant-garde: sur quelques oeuvres de László Dubrovay des années 1980
Between avant-garde and trans-avant-garde: on some works by László Dubrovay from the 1980s

Summary/Abstract: The article presents a rare and exceptional moment in the history of Hungarian creation in the 1980s: when László Dubrovay, Hungarian composer, was able to reconcile tradition and innovation, avant-garde and transavant-garde, the modern and post-modern styles. At that time, he made use of this work carried out in the electroacoustic studios of Cologne, Berlin and Budapest between 1970–85, transposing these experiences onto instrumental writing (chamber music, solo pieces, etc.) According to current terminology , his music is both “spectral” and inspired by the noblest European traditions in terms of the structuring of the works. This analytical work attempts to demonstrate that new sound structures can be entirely compatible with certain styles and forms of music from the 18th -19th centuries. The works examined are: the Third Quartet, Solos No. 3 and No. 5, Octet, and the Symphonia.
