Musique funèbre

Album by Witold Lutosławski & Béla Bartók & Stuttgarter Kammerorchester & Dennis Russell Davies

Musique funèbre is a composition by Polish composer Witold Lutosławski, written in 1958. Scored for string orchestra, it juxtaposes a solemn, passacaglia-like chant with dissonant, serially-derived textures and represents a pivotal step in Lutosławski's shift towards a more modernist, post-war compositional language.
