	Nikolaos Skalkottas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Skalkottas' early works, most of which he wrote in Berlin and some of those written in Athens, are lost.
		Besides his musical work, Skalkottas compiled an important theoretical work, consisting of several "musical articles", a treatise on orchestration, musical analyses etc. Skalkottas soon shaped his personal features of musical writing so that any influence of his teachers was soon assimilated creatively in a manner of composition that is absolutely personal and recognizable.
		Skalkottas was able to draw diverse and in some ways conflicting threads together and not to compromise, rather to enhance, his own originality, range and power of expression.

		This is, of course, the centenary of the birth of Greece’s greatest composer, Nikos Skalkottas.
		Perhaps Skalkottas is emphasizing the phrase "a myriad deaths, become one voice".
		It dates from 1927 when Skalkottas was branching out into such experimental harmony that the effect is atonal.

	Second Viennese School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Their mature music is characterised by atonalism and Schoenberg's twelve tone technique, though Schoenberg's teaching (as his various published textbooks demonstrate) was highly traditional and conservative, and did not include discussion of his serial method.
		The principal members of the school, besides Schoenberg, were Alban Berg and Anton Webern, although there are lesser known composers who perhaps ought to be covered by the term, such as the Greek Nikolaos Skalkottas.
		The 'First Viennese School', which is rarely referred to as such except in comparison to the Second, is generally taken to consist of Vienna-based composers working in the late 18th and early 19th century, particularly Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Joseph Haydn, Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert.

		The texts have been specially reworked and edited, and there are detailed liner notes, which also summarise the composer's isolated and tragic life, dying unknown in 1949, unpublished, unrecorded and unplayed.
		I found little interest in Skalkottas in conversation during a recent visit to Greece for a music festival.
		Nikolaos Samaltanos's playing, recorded in a church, is dedicated and impressive, but not necessarily the last word on this music.

	Musical Pointers
		Skalkottas was celebrated as a significant composer in Harry Halbreich's very personal musical Salon des Refusés, a festival in Portugal which focused upon the resurrection of some undeservedly neglected composers of the recent past.
		A great deal of music, often fast and breathless, may be concentrated into a few minutes, as with several of the works given here.The unique concerto for two violins and piano duet (one piano) makes this an imperative must-buy release.
		Skalkottas died from a ruptured appendix in 1949, unknown, unpublished, unrecorded and unplayed, before he had orchestrated this double concerto.

	Classical Net Review - Skalkottas - Chamber Works
		In UK we remain indebted to Lina Lalandi for presenting his music, year after year, in her ground breaking English Bach Festivals, which featured (alongside the eponymous composer) musicians and composers from her native Greece.
		It is enormously invigorating and hear-lifting music, by a composer who brought Mediterranean warmth into rigorous and complex serial procedures he was discovering and elaborating until his untimely death.

	Nikos Skalkottas -- Encyclopædia Britannica
		in full Nikolaos Skalkottas one of the leading Greek composers of the 20th century.
		Skalkottas began violin studies at the age of five, continuing them later at the Athens conservatory and in Berlin, where he also studied composition.
		Influenced by Schoenberg, with whom he studied (1927–31), he began using the 12-tone method in his compositions but adhered to traditional forms.

	CD BIS Feinberg 1413 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The performers on this disc - pianists Nikolaos Samaltanos and Christophe Sirodeau who have already done so much to promote the music of Skalkottas on BIS - argue that Feinberg's own music has been very unjustly neglected, largely on account of the political conditions prevailing in the Soviet Union during so much of his lifetime.
		In spite of his eminence as a performer, Feinberg was basically confined to the Soviet Union from the 1930s onwards and as his own compositions did not correspond to the criteria of "socialist realism" they were not much performed.
		Besides the committed performances of the two pianists Nikolaos Samaltanos and Christophe Sirodeau, the latter also contributes a substantial essay on the composer and his neglected works.
