Par BARTOK BELA. The editor has selected seventeen of the the forty-two pieces in the 1909 version of Béla Bartók?s seminal work, For Children, Volume One. These selections were chosen as a result of the editor?s teaching experiences with this music: pieces that are both pedagogically advantageous for the teacher, and the most enjoyed by students. Although Bartók?s intention was to write a set of pieces for young people, the charm and depth of these masterful works makes them equally appealing to students of all ages and levels. For Children has been played in concert and recorded by great pianists such as György Sándor, Zoltán Kocsis, Géza Anda, Menahem Pressler, and June de Toth. There is also a recording available on YouTube of Béla Bartók himself playing a selection of pieces from For Children in a 1945 radio broadcast. / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Recueil / Piano

It was written between 1914-15 during a metaphysical phase before Benjamin embraced Marxism. This text emphasises theyoung person's as opposed to the adult's approach to colour: 'for the person who sees with a child's eyes it marks boundaries it is not a layer of something superimposed on matter as it is with adults'.

The first section of this is in the form of a play and illustrates the preparation and rehearsal of an opera.Professionals or very gifted amateurs are needed to play the grown-up parts and also the part of Juliet (provided, of course, that she can look convincingly youthful). It is essential that real children should play the children’s parts. The accompaniment is for solo string quartet, piano-duet (four hands on one piano) and percussion (one player can manage). The string parts are not very easy. The songs Nos. I, IX, XIV and XVII are to be sung by the whole audience under the direction of the conductor. They must, of course, be rehearsed beforehand. Allowance is made for such rehearsal in Part One of Lets Make an Opera.Nombre de pages : 88 Langue : English Format : New Edition portrait

First performed at the Transient Glory Concert on 29th April 2006 at the Ethical Culture Society New York City. The composer writes of her composition 'It is challenging to find a way to compose that hopefully will be interesting and fun for young people and yet not too difficult. A major concern of course is to find the right text: something that will be appreciated by urban young people. I thought that this 'nonsense' poem of John Keats would be highly suitable. It is set for young voices soprano and alto andaccompanied by two clarinets.' Set of parts.
