ligeti editionSony’s LIGETI EDITION includes every approved composition of Ligeti, including his earliest works from Hungary before he became known and before he developed his recognizable style. This was thanks to Ligeti’s patron Vincent Meyer (who receives no mention in this box’s 112-page booklet). To be precise, Sony’s “Ligeti Edition” plus Teldec’s 5-disc “Ligeti Project” include all of Ligeti’s works in composer supervised and approved versions. The 8 volumes of the Ligeti Edition (9 discs because the opera Le Grand Macabre is 2 discs) include most of the early works, while the Ligeti Project has most of the orchestral works and most of Ligeti’s best-known works.
