Quotes about Three Pieces for Orchestra
For me they are very dear pieces, very brilliant; you can have an orchestra really shine in such a piece, and show its virtuosity. For me, they are, first, a great masterpiece of the 20th century, certainly, and also they are also very impressive because you feel all this great outpouring of feeling which I find necessary to convince an audience.
Pierre Boulez, quoted in "Pierre Boulez Picks 10 Great Works of the 20th Century" (March 26, 2015)
