Sugarmusic S.P.A (466 words)
In the compositorial examination of twelve-tone music that Veress felt compelled to undertake after his emigration such a centre is always maintained.
However, Veress would not go beyond the limits of the half-tone; he never took quarter tones or vague pitches into consideration as structural elements.
Veress finally wrote two works for one voice, Cinque Canti on poems by Attila Józsf (voice and piano) and Elegie nach Walther von der Vogelweide (voice and chamber orchestra).

Veress: Hommage a Paul Klee, Concerto, Csardas / Holliger, Schiff, Várjon
A countryman of Bela Bartók and a sometime teacher to both György Ligeti and György Kurtág, Sándor Veress emigrated to Switzerland from what was then part of Hungary in 1949.
Settling in Bern, he collected various prizes and teaching posts while working in relative obscurity on who knows how many pieces--most of which have been unavailable.
