碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 音樂研究所 === 89 === Argentina composer, Alberto Ginastera (1916-1983), was widely regarded as one of the most original and important South American composer of the 20th century. Argentine folk songs and popular elements of the local color were used in his works, especially the adaptation of local melody and rhythm. The Harp Concerto, op25, written in 1965, is an obvious example among Ginastera’s works.
