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.
Tóth, Péter
Péter Tóth was born in 1965 in Budapest. He began studying music at the Béla Bartók Music High School, with Oszkár Schwarcz (percussion) and Miklós Kocsár (composition). In 1985 he was admitted to the Liszt Academy of Music, to the class of Emil Petrovics, from which he graduated in 1990. In 1999 he earned a degree in sound recording, and in 2002 in directing education. He gained a DLA in 2008, and in 2014 he was habilitated.
In the 1990s he wrote much incidental music for theatre productions in Budapest and in the provinces, and for several years he worked as a non-staff teacher at the University of Theatre and Film Arts. He has worked as a sound engineer, a music director, as the director's assistant in television broadcasts, and he has taken part in the making of films for theatrical release and for television. Since September 2011 he has been head of department and associate professor at the Faculty of Music at the University of Szeged, since 1 July 2013 the dean, and since 1 September 2015 professor.
Many of his choral works have won prizes at competitions in Hungary and abroad. He was awarded the Erkel Prize in 2007, the KÓTA Prize in 2009, and the Bartók–Pásztory Prize in 2013. He is an ordinary member of the Hungarian Academy of Arts.
