Neoclassical Valences reflected in Paul Constantinescu’s Creation

Summary/Abstract: The current Neoclassicism in Constantinescu’s creation belongs to the area of syntheses: between the Neoclassical (Neo-Baroque) and folk styles (Three Musical Pieces for Piano, Sinfonietta, Prelude for Piano Solo) – a synthesis achieved by most Romanian creators of the time; between the Neoclassical and Byzantine styles (Liturgy, Oratorios) – an unusual synthesis in the Romanian musical creation, but typical of world music – as, for example, the fusion between the Neoclassical (Neo-Baroque) and Gregorian intonation (Respighi, Hindemith, Stravinsky and so on); between the traditional form and the innovative modal language involved by the folk- Byzantine direction (Symphony, concertos).
