Summary/Abstract: Carmen Petra-Basacopol is a composer whose contemporaneity honours us. Born in 1926, in Sibiu, Carmen Petra-Basacopol crosses the entire 20th century and part of the 21st century with a creation open to stylistic and spiritual experiences. The sacred music enriches and personifies the componistic profile of Carmen Petra-Basacopol, her concerns focusing on symphonic music, chamber music - instrumental, vocal and choral. The work Psalms, op. 66 (1992), for the mixed choir, reveals, through a chain of three psalms (22, 129, 46), a thorough and inspired musical science.
