Alois Hába - Selection Of Works by Alois Hába
Review by POUSADA DEUSES
Alois Hába's album Selection Of Works is a stunning compilation of the composer's most notable pieces. The album showcases Hába's unique microtonal style, which was a significant departure from the traditional Western tonal system. The listener is taken on a journey through different moods and emotions, as each piece on the album has its own distinct character.
One of the standout pieces on the album is the "Suite for Viola and Piano," which features a hauntingly beautiful melody that is at once melancholic and uplifting. The "String Quartet No. 3" is another notable piece that showcases Hába's mastery of microtonal harmonies and his ability to create complex and intricate textures.
