Concertul pentru orchestră de coarde în creația românească - coordonate stilistice
The Concerto for string orchestra in Romanian creation – stylistic coordinates

Summary/Abstract: The concerto for string orchestra was approached by Romanian composers in the mid 20th century, using various methods, which have highlighted the immense potential a string ensamble can encompass. Multiple phases can be distinguished in the genre’s stylistic evolution, 1950-1960 (Sigismund Toduță, Paul Constantinescu, Ion Dumitrescu, Tudor Ciortea), 1960-1980 (Wilhelm Georg Berger, Adalbert Winkler, Remus Georgescu, Mircea Chiriac, Șigismund Toduță, Vasile Herman), 1980-2000 (Vasile Timiș, Viorel Munteanu, Liana Alexandra, Ulpiu Vlad). Frequently resorting to the structure of the Baroque style, some composers managed to create musical speeches of great virtuosity and expressivity, similar to those of a lead singer, using all the elements of the musical language: melody, rhythm, dynamics, agogic, timbre.
