The 10 easy pieces adapted from piano pieces from the famous collection For Children offer an ideal approach to modern music. Numerous school orchestras have played this music with fun and success.

'Dances of Transylvania is the orchestral version of 'Sonatina' (1915). In Sonatina, Bartok had arranged Romanian instrumental (chiefly bagpipe) music. The three movements of the work, 'Bagpipers', 'Bear Dance' and 'Finale' comprise five melodies. Bartok explained that each of the two melodies of the first movement had been played by two pipers, the second by a peasant violinist using the lower strings of the instrument to reproduce the sounds of a bear, and the two melodies of the 'Finale' again by two violinists. In the orchestral version Bartok was out to reproduce the original sonority created by the peasants.' (HCD 32505 Bartok New Series Vol. 5, Virag Buky).

In 1936 Bela Bartok was commissioned by his Swiss patron Paul Sacher to write the Music for Stringed Instruments, Percussion and Celesta. What Bartok created was nothing less than one of the greatest masterworks of the 20th century that beguiles the listener through its extraordinarily refined construction and lushly expressive rhythms and melodies.Also remarkable is that Bartok jotted down the four-movement orchestral work very rapidly and without a short score. Breitkopf's new edition is based on the autograph, on the first editions of the conducting and pocket score, and in particular on the composer's personal copy of the pocket score, in which Bartok later entered the corrections that he had discovered - alterations that were taken into consideration for the first time in this new edition.One of the greatest masterworks of the 20th century! It has lost nothing of its fascination to this day.
