Par BARTOK BELA. Béla Bartók’s “For Children” is one of the best known pedagogical works for piano teachers of the twentieth century, second only perhaps to the same composer’s “Mikrokosmos”. It was based firmly on the huge number of folk songs he collected, recorded and studied with his colleague Zoltán Kodály. At the time, Bartók was offering something very new to piano teachers and their studen…

Par DVORAK ANTONIN. The profound impression it makes on us is due in part to the sequence of variations on a death motif that seems to have been borrowed from the beginning of the second Kyrie from Bach's Mass in B minor. Written in 1890, it was commissioned by the publisher Novello for the Birmingham Music Festival and premiered there under the direction of the composer on 9 October 1891. For thi…

Composed in 1910/11, Bartók's Allegro barbaro is one of his best-known and most popular works for piano. The composer himself enjoyed performing it in concerts, and recorded it several times. The recording from 1929, which he referred to as the 'authentic recording?, contains very interesting divergences from the printed version as far as articulation, tempo and even the number of ostinato measure…

Par BARTOK BELA. Le quatuor le plus long et le plus complexe des six quatuors à cordes de Bartók fut composé durant l’été 1934 en réponse à une commande bien dotée de la prestigieuse Elisabeth Sprague Coolidge Foundation à Washington. Bartók l’écrivit en quelques semaines, à Budapest. Le manuscrit autographe fortement remanié nous montre l’intensité du travail nécessaire à l’élaboration de cette f…

Par DVORAK ANTONIN. Composé à l’automne 1881, l’opus 61 est le dernier des quatuors de Dvorák appelés, chronologiquement parlant, quatuors «du milieu», et dont les modèles déterminants furent Beethoven et Schubert. Dans cette œuvre en Ut majeur, c’est surtout l’influence de Beethoven qui se fait plus particulièrement sentir, de la construction thématique jusqu’au travail motivique, et c’est seulem…
