Product description
These classic Hungarian folk tunes were transcribed for violin and piano by Tivadar Országh and taken from from the piano pieces entitled 'For Children'.
Béla Bartók (1881-1945), full name Béla Viktor János Bartók, was a Hungarian composer, pianist and and music scientist. He emigrated to the USA in 1940 because of his opposition to Hungarian fascism. Together with Leoš Janáček and Zoltán Kodály, he is one of the composers whose significant source of inspiration was folk music. He is considered one of the most important composers of the 20th century.
