This monograph is an authoritative study of the oeuvre of one of
the most important composers of our time. For the first time,
Ligeti's key works are presented in the context of their drafts and
sketches. His personal and artistic development is set forth and
illuminated, and his principal compositions are analyzed and
reinterpreted, based on detailed studies of the scores and drafts,
as well as on personal conversations with the composer. In
addition, numerous questions concerning today's composing are
raised and discussed. Music does not have to be puristic: Ligeti's
spheres of interest are close to universal, embracing history,
natural science, and visual arts, as well as music of diverse eras
and ethnicities. This expanded world of the musical comprises not
just tones and sounds, speech and music, the vocal and the
instrumental: Ligeti conceives music as a cosmos of acoustic form.
