His works for orchestra, string, piano, and voice, as well as some 20 ballets, often drew upon his native Catalán mus ical traditions or borrowed from the West Indies. "Many of his works included an almost folkloric lyricism with melodies that suggested the simplicity of folk songs even if they were not actually based on them," noted New York Times obituary writer Allan Kozinn. Paul Horner, writing about Montsalvatge for Contemporary Composers, also commended his body of work: "His style is deft and witty, exquisitely polished and usually of good taste.", CLEAN in music.
