“ELOGIUL SIMETRIEI”. O VIZIUNE A COMPOZITORULUI REMUS GEORGESCU

Abstract

Oftentimes, musical composition follows a predeterminate generative mechanismthat takes the shape of an algorithm or matrix having the potential of strategic, macrotemporalcoverage. In the Concerto for String Orchestra (Concertul pentru orchestră de coarde), the composerRemus Georgescu achieves a remarkable feat of composition, generating the entire musical discoursebased on the exclusive input of a structure mode whose “placement in time” accurately reflects aseries of laborious and refined palindromic symmetries
