Béla Viktor János Bartók (
/ˈbɑrtɒk/; Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈbeːlɒ ˈbɒrtoːk]; March 25, 1881 – September 26, 1945) was a Hungarian composer and pianist. He is considered one of the most important composers of the 20th century and is regarded, along with Liszt, as Hungary's greatest composer (Gillies 2001). Through his collection and analytical study of folk music, he was one of the founders of ethnomusicology.
Béla Bartók was born in the small Banatian town of Nagyszentmiklós in the Kingdom of Hungary, Austria-Hungary (since 1920 Sânnicolau Mare, Romania) on March 25, 1881. Bartók's family reflected some of the ethno-cultural diversities of the country. His father, Béla Sr., considered himself thoroughly Hungarian, because on his father's side the Bartók family was a Hungarian lower noble family, originating from Borsod county (Móser 2006a, 44; Bartók 1981, 13), though his mother was from a Roman Catholic Serbian family (Bayley 2001, 16). His mother, Paula (born Paula Voit), had German as a mother tongue, but was ethnically of "mixed Hungarian" origin: Her maiden name Voit is German, probably of Saxon origin from Upper Hungary (Since 1920 in Czechoslovakia, since 1993 in Slovakia), though she spoke Hungarian fluently.[citation needed] Among her closest forefathers there were family names like Polereczky (Magyarized Polish or Slovak) and Fegyveres (Magyar). Béla displayed notable musical talent very early in life: according to his mother, he could distinguish between different dance rhythms that she played on the piano before he learned to speak in complete sentences (Gillies 1990, 6). By the age of four, he was able to play 40 pieces on the piano; his mother began formally teaching him the next year.

Concerto for Orchestra, Sz. 116, BB 123, written in 1943.
00:00 - I. Introduzione. Andante non troppo -- Allegro vivace
10:03 - II. "Giuoco delle coppie". Allegretto scherzando
16:05 - III. "Elegia". Andante non troppo
24:05 - IV. "Intermezzo interrotto". Allegretto
28:21 - V. Finale. Presto
This is one of Bartók's best-known, most popular and most accessible works. The score is inscribed "15 August -- 8 October 1943". It was premiered on 1 December 1944, in Symphony Hall, Boston, by the Boston Symphony Orchestra conducted by Serge Koussevitzky. It was a great success and has been regularly performed since. It is perhaps the best-known of a number of pieces that have the apparently contradictory title 'Concerto for Orchestra'. This is in contrast to the conventional concerto form, which features a solo instrument with orchestral accompaniment. Bartók said that he called the piece a concerto rather than a symphony because of the way each section of instruments is treated in a soloistic and virtuosic way.
The work was written in response to a commission from the Koussevitzky Foundation (run by the conductor Serge Koussevitzky) following Bartók's move to the United States from his native Hungary, which he had fled because of World War II. It has been speculated that Bartók's previous work, the String Quartet No. 6 from 1939 (uploaded on this channel), could well have been his last were it not for this commission, which sparked a small number of other compositions, including his Sonata for Solo Violin and Piano Concerto No. 3 (uploaded on this channel). Bartók revised the piece in February 1945, the biggest change coming in the last movement, where he wrote a longer ending. Both versions of the ending were published, and both versions are performed today.
Bartók makes extensive use of classical elements in the work; for instance, the first and fifth movements are in sonata-allegro form. The work combines elements of Western art music and eastern European folk music, especially that of Hungary, and it departs from traditional tonality, often using non-traditional modes and artificial scales. Bartók researched folk melodies, and their influence is felt throughout the work. For example, the second main theme of the first movement, as played by the first oboe, resembles a folk melody, with its narrow range and almost haphazard rhythm. The drone in the horns and strings also indicates folk influence. The "Interrupted Intermezzo" presents the first real carefree moments of the work, with its satiric treatment of the march theme from Shostakovich's "Leningrad" Symphony No. 7 (uploaded on this channel), which Bartók heard in a radio broadcast. The Finale can be compared to the ending of Chopin's 2nd piano sonata, here with unbelievably fast passages in the strings where bits and pieces of earlier thematic material are restated and mixed together to give the listener an impression of what came before.
I want to apologize for the bad score quality, I tried to improve some sections with more contrast but this was not always sufficient...

Piano Concerto No. 3 in E major, Sz. 119, BB 127, written in 1945.
00:00 - I. Allegretto
07:22 - II. Adagio religioso
17:38 - III. Allegro vivace
Bartók composed the Piano Concerto No. 3 in the United States. It differs radically from his first two piano concertos in its lack of overt virtuosity, its lack of conspicuous modernism, and its greater adherence to traditional models and forms. Even the Hungarian melodic and rhythmic elements, while still present, are not as pronounced as in his earlier concertos. The Third is a warmer and more melodic work with a more popular appeal that does not in any way compromise its musical integrity. Bartók wrote the concerto for his wife, Ditta Pasztory. He completed all but the final 17 bars, which were left in his musical shorthand. His friend Tibor Serly finished the work and it was premiered on 8 February 1946, by György Sándor with Eugene Ormandy conducting the Philadelphia Orchestra.
- The Allegretto is in sonata form with two subjects: a rhythmic opening theme and a lyrical second melody. These are developed and recapitulated in a more or less conventional fashion and the movement is rounded off with an elegiac coda of quiet beauty.
- The Adagio religioso is one of Bartók's most heartfelt and heartwarming pieces, a three-part movement with the outer sections being a chorale for piano and orchestra with almost Bachian counterpoint and a central section of gloriously expansive Bartókian night music with bird calls and insect noises.
- The Allegro vivace that follows attaca is a much more boisterous movement in the form of a rondo with two contrasting episodes and an extended coda. With its angular themes, its spiky rhythms, its contrapuntal developments, its aggressive orchestration with a large part for percussion, and its bravura piano writing, the Allegro vivace is by far the most Bartókian movement of the Third.

00:00 - I. Allegretto
07:22 - II. Adagio religioso
17:38 - III. Allegro vivace
Bartók composed the Piano Concerto No. 3 in the United States. It differs radically from his first two piano concertos in its lack of overt virtuosity, its lack of conspicuous modernism, and its greater adherence to traditional models and forms. Even the Hungarian melodic and rhythmic elements, while still present, are not as pronounced as in his earlier concertos. The Third is a warmer and more melodic work with a more popular appeal that does not in any way compromise its musical integrity. Bartók wrote the concerto for his wife, Ditta Pasztory. He completed all but the final 17 bars, which were left in his musical shorthand. His friend Tibor Serly finished the work and it was premiered on 8 February 1946, by György Sándor with Eugene Ormandy conducting the Philadelphia Orchestra.
- The Allegretto is in sonata form with two subjects: a rhythmic opening theme and a lyrical second melody. These are developed and recapitulated in a more or less conventional fashion and the movement is rounded off with an elegiac coda of quiet beauty.
- The Adagio religioso is one of Bartók's most heartfelt and heartwarming pieces, a three-part movement with the outer sections being a chorale for piano and orchestra with almost Bachian counterpoint and a central section of gloriously expansive Bartókian night music with bird calls and insect noises.
- The Allegro vivace that follows attaca is a much more boisterous movement in the form of a rondo with two contrasting episodes and an extended coda. With its angular themes, its spiky rhythms, its contrapuntal developments, its aggressive orchestration with a large part for percussion, and its bravura piano writing, the Allegro vivace is by far the most Bartókian movement of the Third.

The Miraculous Mandarin, pantomime in 1 act, Sz. 73, BB 82 (Op. 19), written in 1918-1919.
00:00 - 01. Opening – The girl and three tramps
03:07 - 02. First seduction game: the shabby old rake
06:52 - 03. Second seduction game: the young student
09:55 - 04. Third seduction game
11:37 - 05. The Mandarin enters and remains immobile in the doorway
14:01 - 06. The girl begins a hesitant dance…
19:54 - 07. The Mandarin stumbles – the chase becomes even more passionate
20:36 - 08. The three tramps leap out, seize the Mandarin and tear him away from the girl
22:42 - 09. Suddenly the Mandarin's head appears between the pillows and he looks longingly at the girl
25:42 - 10. The terrified tramps discuss how they are to get rid of the Mandarin
27:03 - 11. The body of the Mandarin begins to glow with a greenish blue light
28:52 - 12. She resists no longer – they embrace
Béla Bartók’s pantomime The Miraculous Mandarin stands at the head of a group of works (including the Four Orchestral Pieces, the two violin sonatas, and ballet The Wooden Prince) that effectively bring to a close the first half of his career. Defining in Bartók’s early career was the experience, in 1903, of hearing Richard Strauss’ Also Sprach Zarathustra. Consequently, the most important orchestral scores of Bartók’s early years feature striking colouristic effects and a highly complex internal counterpoint inherited from Strauss, though with Bartók’s own stylistic and rhetorical profile. This work represents the zenith of this stylistic trend.
Based on a play by Menyhert (Melchior) Lengyel, The Miraculous Mandarin tells the sordid (but “beautiful,” to use Bartók’s term) story of three urban toughs who force a girl to lure men to their lair, where they will then be attacked and robbed. Among those ensnared is a wealthy and otherworldly Mandarin, whose desire for the girl inures him against the robbers’ attempts to kill him by using a variety of methods. Only when the girl submits to the Mandarin’s desires is he finally able to die from his wounds.
Writing to his first wife, Bartók described the unforgettable opening bars as “an awful clamor, clatter, stampeding and blowing of horns.” Swirling strings and blaring winds depict the chaotic urban street scene, from which we are transported into the robbers’ lair. Bartók is at his most dissonant here, his Expressionistic chromaticism pushing close to the border of atonality. The girl’s seductive call is represented by a snaky clarinet theme, which is answered first by a poor student, then a shabby old man. The robbers toss both of the unlikely prospects down the stairs. The appearance of the Mandarin is underscored by an imposing wall of timbres over a low pedal point, with frightening emphasis from the organ. The girl hesitantly dances with the Mandarin to a sinuous and unsettling waltz, but his lust turns the pas de deux into a frantic chase. Bartók here translates his “Allegro barbaro” style into an expressionistic sequence of impressive skill and excitement (the concert suite ends with the climax of the chase). The robbers’ attempts to kill the Mandarin are graphically depicted, with low, muffled music for the smothering and sharp orchestral sforzandi accompanying each stab of the sword. When the girl takes pity on the Mandarin, her gestures are accompanied by an eerie variant of the waltz theme. The death of the Mandarin is among the most terrifying music ever written: an offstage chorus keens wordlessly on a rocking minor third, while a cold cantabile in the strings is punctuated by dissonant clusters from winds and percussion depicting the Mandarin’s horrible death spasms. Bartók’s original version of the score was tied closely to the dramaturgy of pantomime, with long sections of recitative-style music to mirror the stage action. Subsequent revisions brought the score into a more symphonic shape.
At some points the 4-hand reduction was different from the recording of the orchestral version; I had to black out some parts, and also used a few sheets from the orchestral version.

The filming of "Concert Magic", the first concert film in Hollywood history, begins in December 1947, for Yehudi Menuhin a privately very disturbing time: His first marriage had failed and he just had married his second wife Diana.
The documentary "Menuhin in Hollywood" tells the story of the "Concert Magic" that had its premiere in October 1948 at the Stage Door Theatre in San Francisco. 50 years later, Menuhin meets with his biographer Humphrey Burton in Warsaw to get together and watch those legendary film recordings, of which he had seen not a single second up to that time.
Yehudi Menuhin himself was particularly interested in his recording of the Violin Concerto by Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, that due to its length could not be taken into account in "Concert Magic". Even experts did not know for a long time that Menuhin had recorded the concert in front of the camera. Visibly moved, the century violinist comments these and other rarities.
The focus of the film is on previously unreleased footage from the legendary Hollywood music film, “Concert Magic” from the year 1947. In interviews and conversations with his biographer Humphrey Burton Yehudi Menuhin recalls the origin of the film, the war and post-war era in America and Germany. Special attention is paid to his commitment to the victims of World War II. These include great artists forced into American exile such as fellow musician Béla Bartók. During the Second World War Yehudi Menuhin helped to raise the spirits of war victims and refugee children with numerous concerts. He supported artists in American exile, performed for an audience of freed prisoners of the concentration camp Bergen-Belsen, and in war ravaged Berlin he played demonstratively under the baton of Wilhelm Furtwängler. Looking back at the mid-1940's it is clear to see with what passion Menuhin linked his goals of musical excellence with a dedication to social causes. He used music to plead for justice and reconciliation often against strong resistance.

Viola Concerto (completed in 1949 by Tibor Serly), Sz. 120, BB 128, written in 1945.
00:00 - I. Moderato [attacca]
12:53 - II. Adagio religioso - Allegretto [attacca]
17:30 - III. Allegro vivace
While the nature of musical composition most often involves a state of artistic solitude and independence, the untimely death of a composer has at times made necessary the unexpected aid of a collaborator. Indeed, the list of compositions that were completed by others after the death of the composer is surprisingly varied. The most famous examples are those of Mozart's Requiem and Mahler's Tenth Symphony, but other composers -- including Puccini, Berg, and Elgar -- also left behind unfinished works that were later brought to a more complete state with varying degrees of success. Béla Bartók was surely aware of his own impending demise as he worked feverishly in order to complete his last two major works, the Piano Concerto No. 3 and the Viola Concerto, in 1945. Although the Third Piano Concerto was fully realized except for the orchestration of the final 17 bars, the Viola Concerto presented a somewhat more complex problem. Bartók's friend and pupil, Tibor Serly, was entrusted with the completion of this work, which he discussed in a 1969 interview with David Dalton:
"Bartók never worked in a reduced score or a piano reduction. He did not like to make piano reductions; he always refused to do that. Bartók was one of those rare composers who thought orchestrally. He tried to put down the orchestration as best he could so that it would be visible and possibly playable. He did not think in terms of just writing down the harmonic content, then the melody, and then going on from there. This manuscript is not a reduced sketch in any sense of the term. Where it was completed, every single instrumental part, every single particle has been put in. However, he did not mark the instruments; he made very few designations. If you could once decipher those parts, the orchestration was complete as it is. I had to clearly decipher the sketches so that everything went into place: skipped bars, additions, and other alterations. Now there are a few little places, for instance in the slow movement, where he knew exactly what he wanted to do, but put in only touches of orchestration. There are other parts, as in the last movement, where only the melodic line comes up, but he knew what was going on there; he had just not put it in."
The work, which had been commissioned by violist William Primrose in 1945, was finally premiered in 1950 by Primrose with Antal Dorati and the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. The concerto is divided into three movements, each linked to the next by seamless transitions of mood.
- The first, Moderato, begins with the first theme lightly accompanied by pizzicato cellos and basses, followed by a cadenza-like passage that leads to the entrance of the full orchestra. The movement contains three main themes, which are treated in a manner not unlike that of a Classical sonata-allegro movement.
- The second movement, Adagio religioso, begins with a suggestion of the work's first theme and unfolds into a more lyrical statement incorporating a rather brief moment of agitation in its center.
- In the final movement, Allegro vivace, Bartók makes characteristic use of dance rhythms, evoking the folk-like atmosphere and simplicity that were particular hallmarks of his earlier style.
