composed in the summer 1937 in Budapest, Hungary, Bartok's homeland, this work was at the time a novelty due to the peculiar combination of instruments
A dazzling masterpiece of 20th-Century neoclassicism, and the summit of Bartok's musical achievement, along with his brilliant set of string quartets and Music for Strings, Percussion & Celesta. And these performers display such gusto as well as precision. Terrific!
Great! This is almost as interesting to watch as it is to listen to. Watching the percussionists in the fast sections zipping around from instrument to instrument is fun. I keep worrying they might bump into something and make a horrible noise.
Very very difficult to play. Indeed.
