Mr. Chen assigned each composer one of the Ligeti Études. Composers could study the Étude, go against the Étude, or sit with the Étude while composing. They had the choice of writing an Étude or something entirely different. Nevertheless, the pairing is both conscious and subconscious, a basis for the composers to give free rein to their imagination. The project is co-commissioned by the Metropolis Ensemble. |
