Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 3
Album by Béla Bartók & Peter Serkin & Seiji Ozawa & Chicago Symphony Orchestra
Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 3 is a collection of piano concertos by Hungarian composer Béla Bartók, composed in 1926 and 1945. They exemplify Bartók's modernist synthesis of dissonant harmonies, folk-influenced rhythms and percussive piano writing, with the First Concerto reflecting his interwar, more angular style and the Third, written near the end of his life in exile, showing a more transparent, lyrical texture and economy of orchestration.
First released: April 2017
