This publication is designed to raise interest in contemporary music and create a personal relationship with unconventional forms ofmusic and music-making among the age group most receptive to these, that is, elementary school children. The pieces featured in it are in widely differing styles and by composers of different age groups and levels of recognition: Janos Bali, Adam Kondor, Gabor Kosa, Gyorgy Kurtag Jr., Csaba Lauran, Dora Petery, Vera Ronkos, Laszlo Sary, Andras Soos, Mate Szigeti and Peter Tornyai. Although 'creativity' plays a central role, this volume is not intended for training professional composers. It serves merely to encourage children to engage in the life-giving and pleasurable activities of listening to and forming sounds.
