Bartók’s World
Join the Sherman Chamber Ensemble for Bartók’s World, the music of Béla Bartók and his influencers.
Inspired on one hand by the folk music of eastern Europe, and on the other by Strauss and Debussy, Bartok created his own unique style and is considered one of the most important composers of the 20th century. The Piano Quintet, written when he was just 22, is richly scored with a virtuoso piano part and is a post-Romantic masterpiece.
• Suite Paysanne Hongrois for flute and piano (trans. Paul Arma)
• Piano Quintet, Sz 23 in C
Performing are Margaret Kampmeier (piano), Eliot Bailen (cello), Susan Rotholz (flute), Doori Na (violin) and Sarah Adams (viola).
