5.0 out of 5 stars
a truly eye-opening explanation of Bartok and his works!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Béla Bartók and Turn-of-the-Century Budapest (Hardcover)
I am a fan of history-and-criticism books (especially on musical topics), but ONLY when they read with the clarity of logic and the authority of resourced research which is demonstrated by this wonderful book. The purposes and meanings which underlie so much of Bartok's work and music, from folk-song research to Cantata Profana and all of the stage works, are beautifully revealed. It is a true inspiration to read about the milieu which helped to create the great sense of purpose which drove Bartok to his greatness. (Derrill Bodley, Professor)
