ATTILA FODOR - Francisc László’s Mozart Legacy – Reflections on the Volume Studii mozartiene III
Abstract
On the tenth anniversary of Francisc László’s passing, the Romanian Mozart Society published all his scholarly writings on the Viennese composer in their Mozart Studies series. The volume is significant in several respects. Firstly it fills a gap, as the results of four decades of internationally acclaimed research have become available in one collection for the domestic audience. It is also a written legacy that expresses the author’s lifelong commitment to Mozart, his dedicated and sacrificial work in promoting the composer’s oeuvre, both theoretical and practical, and in this sense, it serves as an inspiring example for future generations. Just as importantly, it is a worthy tribute to László’s memory, to which we can add our modest thoughts.
