Description
B�la Bart�k’s (1881-1945) Four Orchestra Pieces, Op. 12 premiered in January 1922 in Budapest, but did not become one of Bart�k’s best-known works until its popularity was revived by Pierre Boulez in the 1970s. Bart�k’s influences are on display in these pieces, including that of Debussy in the first movement “Preludio,” and Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony in the Scherzo. Four Orchestra Pieces is considered a bridge stylistically between Bart�k’s early works like Duke Bluebeard’s Castle and his mature works like The Miraculous Mandarin.
