Style

Tas combines modern compositional techniques with more traditional techniques or stylistic idioms such as tonality, neo-romanticism or neo-impressionism. A cantabile quality is always given pride of place. Within this polystylistic compositional approach, the eclectic element also continues to play a crucial role.
