Béla Bartók planned in 1939 to arrange for two violins and three violins his choral works (for egual voices). He was prevented from doing this by his early death. At the request of the Editio Musica Budapest, Endre Szervánszky has undertaken this task in 1971. His arrangements, which we are bringing out in two volumes, offer valuable material both to violin teaching and group music-making. Béla Bartók plante im Jahre 1939 die Bearbeitung seiner Chöre (für gleiche Stimmen) für zwei, bzw. drei Violinen. Sein früher Tod verhinderte jedoch dieses Vorhaben. Im Auftrag der Editio Musica Budapest löste Endre Szervánszky diese Ausgabe. Seine in zwei Heften erscheinenden Bearbeitungen bieten sowohl für den Unterricht als auch für das gemeinsame Musizieren wertvolles Material.

Béla Bartók composed the series of forty-four violin duos in 1931, prompted by the German violin teacher Erich Doflein. With the exception of numbers 35 and 36, all the pieces are based on original folk melodies, and the majority were collected by the composer himself during his numerous field trips in the Carpathian Basin. The melody for No. 42 was collected by Bartók in Algeria. Universal Edition (Vienna) published the violin duos in 1933 in four volumes, arranged in order of difficulty. The present transcription faithfully follows the original. Fingerings are by the editor.
