The Rumanian composer György Ligeti, for many years professor of composition in Hamburg, wrote the following about his turbulent early work »Concert Românesc«: »I spent the years 1949/50 in Rumania, studying at the Folk Music Institute in Bucharest, after which I took part in several trips to record folk music both Rumanian and Hungarian. This four-movement orchestral concerto is based on many different Rumanian folk tunes that I recorded, but most of them are taken from wax cylinders and gramophone records in the archive of the Bucharest Folk Music Institute«.
