🇷🇴Ligeti György Sándor ： Musica Ricercata No.7 Cantabile Molto Capriccioso

The seventh piece from Ligeti’s Musica Ricercata brings together the singing quality suggested by its title with gestures that are capricious and freely shaped. While lyrical phrases unfold expansively, changes in rhythm and accent give the music a light sway and underlying tension. A key point of interest is making the shifts between passages clear to the listener. The performer should preserve the direction of each note while carefully distinguishing the resonance of the legato writing and its delicate nuances. Rather than fixing the tempo mechanically, breathe flexibly without losing the flow of the beat, allowing the charm of the capricious character and the singing quality to emerge together.
