Overview

English Overview:
This captivating LP release presents a comprehensive collection of early 20th-century piano works by Béla Bartók. Part of the Bartók Béla Complete Edition – II. Piano Music series, this album features an extensive program that includes:

  • Fifteen Hungarian Peasant Songs (1914–18):
    An evocative set enriched with folk elements, featuring movements such as Four Old Dirges, Scherzo, Ballada, and Old Dance Songs.

  • Three Rondos on Folk Tunes (1916–27):
    A dynamic display of folk-inspired rondos that combines lyrical melodies with rhythmic vitality, including movements marked Andante, Vivacissimo, and Allegro Molto.

  • Three Studies Op. 18 (1918):
    These studies, with their energetic and exploratory character (Allegro Molto, Andante Sostenuto, Rubato – Tempo Giusto Capriccioso), present technical challenges and expressive depth.

  • Improvisations on Hungarian Peasant Songs Op. 20 (1920):
    A series of improvisatory pieces that illustrate Bartók’s inventive approach to folk material with varied tempos and moods, from Molto Moderato to Allegro and Allegretto moderato passages.

  • Dance Suite (1923, 1925):
    A lively suite that captures the spirit of Hungarian dance, structured with contrasting sections—Moderato, multiple Ritornell passages, Allegro Vivace, Molto Tranquillo, and a rousing Finale Allegro.

Performed by the distinguished pianist Gábor Gabos, this LP offers a vivid example of Bartók’s modern reinterpretation of folk traditions through innovative piano writing. The album is presented in both stereo and mono sound, highlighting the nuances of the performance and the rich textures of Bartók’s compositions.

Hungarian Overview (Áttekintés):
Ez a lebilincselő LP felvétel Béla Bartók korai, 20. századi zongoraműveinek átfogó gyűjteményét mutatja be a Bartók Béla Complete Edition – II. Zongoraművek 7 sorozat részeként. A lemez programja a következő műfajokat tartalmazza:

  • Tizenöt magyar népdalfeldolgozás (1914–18):
    Érzelmekkel teli válogatás, amely népi elemeket ötvöz, olyan részekkel, mint a „Four Old Dirges”, „Scherzo”, „Ballada” és „Old Dance Songs”.

  • Három rondó népi dallamokon (1916–27):
    Dinamikus és lírai körművek, melyekben az „Andante”, „Vivacissimo” és „Allegro Molto” jelzések tükrözik a népi ihletet és ritmikus lendületet.

  • Három tanulmány Op. 18 (1918):
    Ezek a tanulmányok – „Allegro Molto”, „Andante Sostenuto” és „Rubato – Tempo Giusto Capriccioso” –, technikai kihívásokkal és kifejező mélységgel bírnak.

  • Improvisációk magyar népdalfeldolgozásokon Op. 20 (1920):
    Egy sor improvizatív darab, amely Bartók egyedi népi anyagkezelését mutatja be, változatos tempókkal és hangulati váltásokkal, a „Molto Moderato”-tól az „Allegro” és „Allegretto Moderato, Molto Capriccioso” részekig.

  • Tánc Suite (1923, 1925):
    Egy élénk suite, mely a magyar tánc szellemét ragadja meg, több egymást váltó szekción keresztül: Moderato, ismétlődő Ritornell, Allegro Molto, Allegro Vivace, Molto Tranquillo és egy lendületes Finale Allegro.

Gábor Gabos kiemelkedő zongorajátéka által ez a felvétel megtestesíti Bartók modern, népi ihletésű zongoraműveinek sokszínűségét, és mind a sztereó, mind a mono formátum előnyeit igénybe véve ragyogja fel a zeneszerző műveinek gazdagságát.
