Product Description

This work is an arrangment of the solo piano piece No. 149 (of 153) from 'Mikrokosmos' by Bela Bartok (No. 2 of Six Dances in Bulgarian Rhythm). The piece is for a 7-part mixed chamber ensemble of oboe, clarinet, bassoon, French horn, violin, viola, and cello. The instrumentation was originally for single string players, though multiple players can be used. The arrangement aims to convey typical Bartokian timbres, as well as recreating Bartok's contrasting use of the piano; this is both occasionally percussive, and sometimes sustained (due to the use of the right pedal in Bartok's piano piece). This arrangement can also include a pianist playing the original piece on the piano, as the chamber ensemble doubles exaxctly. This PDF document is complete for performance, with the full score provided, followed by each part.
Duration: 2 minutes.
