Abstract (Swedish)
This essay investigates how a musician's background influences their interpretation of Hungarian cello music, focusing on the Sonata for Solo Cello by György Ligeti and the Duo for Violin and Cello by Zoltán Kodály. Exploring the connection between nationality, musical upbringing, and interpretive choices, the essay delves into Hungarian folk music's influence on these compositions. It examines the role of the Hungarian language in shaping rhythmic interpretations and analyzes recordings and scores to identify effective performance strategies. Through score analysis and examples of alterations, the essay proposes methods for achieving authenticity in interpreting unfamiliar cultural music traditions.
