[edit] Glaring omission: Ligeti

There's no mention of György Ligeti, who was a major 20th century Hungarian composer. I don't know enough about this subject to write anything cogent. Who wants to remedy this? --ILike2BeAnonymous 19:31, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

I noticed the same thing when I was adding László Lajtha yesterday. As a minimum, he could just be added to one of the lists of names under "Later 20th century" - but where? (Chronologically, he falls midway between the Kadosa/Farkas/Ránki generation and the Vidovszky/Jeney generation, and is in any case a more significant figure than any of them.) I'll put it on my to-do list, and if no-one else has a shot in the meantime, I'll try to write something next week, but (like you) I'm really no Ligeti expert - it'll simply be a matter of stitching something together from the Ligeti article and figuring how to incorporate it into this article in a coherent way, to plug the gap until someone more knowledgeable comes along.
