中文The journey of musical works from author to performer
The task of the music publisher is to put manuscripts (be they paper or computerised) into a form that is legible, inspiring, and easy to use for performers; and to ensure the promotion, distribution, and legal use of the works.
With 75 years of experience behind us, we do this honourable work with consideration, commitment, and enthusiasm.
We thank the composers and music teachers who entrust their works to us.

Vajda, János
His early creative period was characterized by free dodecaphony, then the use of repetitive techniques. This gave place later to a neoromantic, neotonal orientation. He is an important composer for the theatre, to whom a lighter tone and humorous devices are not alien. Through his handling of sound and his formal devices he likes to make frequent allusion to earlier periods in musical tradition. With his art that is rich in character he has evolved a style that is more easily acceptable to a wider audience as well. In addition to theatrical works, ballets and vocal works he also composes orchestral, chamber and solo pieces.Biography
