Abstracts

EN

Kresánek’s trilogy Fundamentals of Musical Thinking (1977), Tonality (1982) and Tectonics (1994) is based on an original conception of musical thinking. He understands the basis and development of musical thinking as a cooperation of three components: sonoristics, dynamism and thematics. For clarification of Kresánek’s ideas, the author points to parallel ideas in the concept of musical thinking of Hans Heinrich Eggebrecht. Taking as her foundation Kresánek’s theory of an analogy between the phylogenetic development of the musical thinking of mankind and the ontogenetic development of musical thinking in the individual, the author presents a conception of the cycle Musica ricercata (1951 – 1953) by György Ligeti. Based on an extreme reduction of the material, Ligeti’s work represents a noteworthy compositional concept, whose poetics “copies” the evolution of musical thinking.
