Summary/Abstract: A significant personality of the Romanian musical life, the composer Sigismund Toduță carried out an intense musical and didactic activity, the current prestige of the Cluj musical institutions being due, to a large extent, to his rich activity. Sigismund Toduță’s compositional style has a pronounced polyphonic character, impregnated with characteristics of Renaissance and Baroque music. Inspired by folklore, his musical discourse displays modal harmonies, sometimes intensely chromatized, and endowed with frequent moments of heterophony. The monumentality of his creation places him alongside the great composer George Enescu, as the works of both also represent high artistic values worldwide
