Product description
This publication is dedicated to Bohuslav Martinů's only and never-before-published piano composition, which he wrote in his 20s. The composition entitled Ballad under Krzec's painting "The Last Chords of Chopin" is convincing, expressively strong and conveys the impression that this painting by the Polish painter left on Bohuslav Martin.
Bohuslav Martinů (1890-1959) was a Czech composer, violinist, pedagogue and music critic. His artistic development progressed from impressionism through neoclassicism, expressionism and jazz inspiration to a purely compositional style of his own. Stylistically, he is closest to the generation of neo-classicists such as Arthur Honegger, Béla Bartók and others.
