Agada (a Legend)<\/i> was first performed in London at the 1962 International Festival of Contemporary Music organized by the I.S.C.M. It is written in the serial technique and based on a dodecaphonic note-row with an oriental character. The source of inspiration for this work is the oriental technique of improvisation, based on developing variations.<\/p>

The work is in five movements, played without any break. The first movement is an image \u2013 cadenza; the second \u2013 a quasi-theme; the third \u2013 a set of variations in accelerating movement; the fourth \u2013 a reprise of the theme in modal variation; and the fifth \u2013 a variant of the third movement.<\/p>"},"yoast_head":"\nA Legend -
