Béla Bartók (1881-1945)
Last updated: 02.04.23
According to The New Penguin Dictionary of Music, Béla Bartók was a Hungarian composer, settled in USA 1940, dying there a poor man. From youth a virtuoso pianist. Cultivated and developed Hungarian national musical style; partly in association with Kodály, collected and edited Hungarian folk-songs, showing them to be different from the gypsy music borrowed by Liszt, Brahms etc. Active in investigating other folk-music too. His own works - often anatonal and cultivating extreme dissonance, especially in his middle life, include opera, mime-play; much piano music; and works for children.
