Bartók's Piano Music

In this episode of Classics Unlocked, Graham Abbott explores the piano music of Béla Bartók. His music was, by and large, influenced by his researches into folk music traditions, but he also wrote works with starkly modernist characteristics. He was not only one of the great composers and music educators of the 20th century, but also one of its great pianists. And a pianist who wrote an enormous amount of wonderful music for the piano.
