What is Bartók remembered about?
In Bartk Remembered , Malcolm Gillies has brought us closer to this man through a collection of memoirs written by those who knew him best. The volume contains nearly one hundred recollections of Bartk, from his mothers memories of his early years in provincial Hungary, to assorted reminiscences of his last years in New York. Bartks virtuosic Concerto for Orchestra, his opera Duke Bluebeards Castle , and his Mikrokosmos for solo piano are some of the works by this great Hungarian composer that are admired and performed throughout the Western world. Yet Bla Bartk, the man, remains something of an enigmaremote, ascetic, uncompromising in his person and in his art.
