Description
Bartók's Allegro barbaro, composed in 1910/11, is one of his most renowned and beloved piano works. The composer himself frequently performed and recorded it, with his 1929 "authentic recording" containing intriguing divergences from the published score in terms of articulation, tempo, and even the number of ostinato measures. This Urtext edition, the first in the forthcoming Béla Bartók Complete Critical Edition, presents these performance nuances for the first time, offering a glimpse into the wealth of musical insights awaiting in this landmark publication from Editio Musica Budapest and G. Henle Publishers.
