ABRSM Cello Syllabus title - Grade 7.Gábor Lisznyay Szabó (1913-1981) was a pupil of Ernst von Dohnányi at the Music Academy in Budapest and he later worked for decades as an organist. The years he spent studying in Belgium left a significant mark on his composition style. His work entitled Autumn also captures the French essence: the cello's flowing melody is reminiscent of the noblest chansons and filled with emotion, and as such it is akin to the Adagio that Zoltán Kodály wrote for cello during his younger years as a composer.
