							Description:
						
						
						Program note (English): Bravely aiming at an 'Umwertung aller Werte' - a revaluation of all values - the present-day musical idioms are still in their experimental stages. For the composer whose development is founded on a traditional basis, it is impossible, however, to stand aside: the current contrasts between tonal and a-tonal, between pure sound effects and 'old-fashioned' methods of working with motifs, entail problems of every kind.  This Symfonietta, purposely scored for the austere strength of a string orchestra, also bears witness to these conflicts; not only in the manifold contrasts between the two movements - the first, thin of sound and unstable of design, the notoric second, solidly built - but also in the numerous melodic, harmonic, contrapuntal and instrumental clashes. The fact that the constructive element and tonality finally bear the upper hand is not meant as a pointer to the future. - GÉZA FRID
