He has written solo, chamber, choral and orchestral works, among them 3 string quartets, 5 piano sonatas and 8 symphonies. He was awarded a Queen Elisabeth of Belgium Prize for his Symphony No. 2 (premiered at Brussels) and an A.I.D.E.M. prize for his Symphony No. 4 (premiered in Florence at the Maggio Musicale).[1] His Symphony No. 3 and Variations on "The Wayfaring Stranger" were premiered by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra under Paul Paray.[2] The Detroit Free Press observed in the Symphony No. 3 "an economy of means . . . but no yielding of inventiveness or imaginative composition. Indeed, the work throughout is marked strongly by individuality, and comes as a refreshing experience in modern music."[3] Among his earlier works (1946, preceding the 1948 second symphony) is a concertino for piano and orchestra.[4] In 1966 he composed a three-movement Concerto for Concertina and Strings, as his Op. 44. In 2008 his 2nd and 7th symphonies were issued on compact disc by the Naxos label.[1] In 2012 his 3rd, 4th and 8th symphonies, recorded by the Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Kirk Trevor, were published on compact disc by the MSR (Musicians Showcase Recordings) label.
