Bartók - Romanian Folk Dances arr. clarinet + piano

Description

The 1915 'Roumanian Folk Dances' for piano were one outcome of Bela Bartók's intensive preoccupation with the folk music of Southeastern Europe, based on authentic folk melodies which Bartók himself wrote down in Roumania, adding his own harmonies. He subsequently arranged the pieces for chamber orchestra (1917), and soon after this Zoltan Szekely arranged them for violin & piano: it is on this latter version that the present arrangement for Bb clarinet and piano accompaniment is based.
