- The Best of Béla Viktor János Bartók (March 25, 1881 - September 26, 1945)
Bartók is considered one of the most important composers of the 20th century; he and Liszt are often regarded as Hungary's greatest composers. Through his collection and analytical study of folk music, he was one of the founders of comparative musicology, which later became ethnomusicology.
Life and Music:
* Béla Bartók was an infant prodigy.
* He was performing on the piano in public by the age of 11 and by the time he had graduated from the Budapest Royal Academy in 1903 he was confidently composing in the Liszt-Richard Strauss mould.
* Bartok formed a partnership with the composer Zoltan Kodaly and together they set about collecting Hungarian and Transylvanian folk songs. This formed the bedrock of Bartok's fast developing musical style.
* During the decade between the late 1920s and 1930s the seemingly conflicting musical elements were fused, resulting in a stream of masterpieces, from the breathtaking rhythmic propulsion and ear-tweaking sonorities of the Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion (1937) to the post-Romantic luxuriance of the Second Violin Concerto (1937).
* Bartok escaped the horrors of war for New York, which brought with it a change of style.
* He composed little for two years until a commission from the conductor Serge Koussevitzky opened the floodgates once more. This released works such as the Concerto for Orchestra, the Third Piano Concerto and the sadly incomplete Viola Concerto.
* Bartok had one last surprise up his sleeve, however, with the uncompromising and enigmatic Sonata for Solo Violin (1944), written for Yehudi Menuhin.

Love the music of Bartok, WHO's WITH ME ?
i am with you!
Me too!
So am I.
yes !
KUNSTENAAR always Bartók!!
Bartok's music seems to be in my DNA. for most of my life.
I feel it inborn sometimes, too!
Your DNA doesn't change that dramatically over your entire life. I'm just being a bit of a literal smart ass, but just sayin'. :-)
Beautifully said. I can't describe it other than to make the comparison that someone might have said regarding Wagners creations in the mid 19th century. "It's not music at all. It is something way beyond music."
He was such a terrific storyteller through his music!
Aside from his compositions, Bartok also conducted important contemporary research into Eastern European folk music and through his writings helped comparative musicology move away from crude analysis of "primitive" music of 'the other' as influenced by colonialism and the nationalist movement. His writing on race purity in music is insightful and a milestone in the recognition of the influence of heterogeneity on the as-then-perceived 'homogeneous' music cultures of newly born nation-states in the early 20th century.
Bartok, and others like him, helped Ethnomusicology develop and mature into the study of music as a universal human culture.
My favorite composer & one of my biggest musical inspirations 🤍x bela we love you
apparently this guy is like my great great grandpa or uncle or something and that's so cool????
Amazing
Madison Bartok You are lucky :D
Don't believe it.
You're not allowed to have any awkward conversations at the dinner table anymore with this dude on your mind, haha
It is cool indeed!
Ja; je öfter man sie hört, desto schöner wird sie. So farbenreich und gefühlvoll!
Bartok is totally underrated/ underappreciated".....
What are you talking about??? Bach, Beethoven, Bartók are the three geniuses! Bartók is highly valued and admired among the music experts.
I’m obsessed with his Miraculous Mandarin performed by Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra under Andres Orozco Estrada. The amount of cool, modern rhythms and textures is unreal
His concerto for orchestra is my favorite piece of music
The beginning is really no beginning. There is nothing linear or sequential about it. It hangs around us, spellbinding. Bartok can be like that, where time doesn’t exist.
Even his most simple unison melodies in Mikrokosmos 1 are little gems!
Who was exposed to Bartók like me via drum corps, especially Star of Indiana? Because of it, I'm a life long fan of his work
Currently analyzing the second movement of Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta. What an incredibly rich and complex piece of music.
i have no answer
I agree completely. My all time favourite piece of music, and I have eclectic tastes. This version is missing an important piece of instrumentation. Try Harnoncourt and you'll hear what I mean.
Analysis is understanding, music is feeling.
Bartok satisfaz os conflitos e bagunça da minha mente
thanks for starting off with my favorite of all, MSPC, perhaps his best work IMHO and I am a Bartok lover for forty years, well familiar with all his works. this recording sounds familiar. fine performance. great post! thank you!!!!!
Lots of fun to listen to while reading a mystery novel. 📖📔📕
Virtually anything Bartók wrote can be considered the best of him. Maybe not counting one of his most difficult string quartets. The rest is pure heavenly music. I even like his dark music from the Music for strings, percussion... not so much for the musicality of it, which i do, but for the incredible music behind the apparent darkness. That first fugue, for instance, pure genius.
Love your Syd Barrett icon, by the way. His combination of tonal and atonal, merging the gap between popular music and experimental avant-garde, is what got me into music like this. His contributions to rock music are very undermined in comparison to jazz and classical composers who pushed the medium of sound forward. Of course, it doesn’t help that his career was cut so short.
I have been on a classical music kick lately, exploring the history of music, and seeking out more experimental classical music pieces which aren’t necessarily entirely atonal. I can certainly enjoy purely atonal music, but I feel music that bridges and combines both is far more expressive, as it’s making full use of the sonic palette of sounds, rather than adhering to one extreme or another. Bartók is most certainly up my alley.
Try Ligeti piano concerto - mixes post Bartokian with Pygmy rhythms, fractals etc. Takes some getting used to but I get the same pleasure from it as Bartok piano concertos
Not enough is said about Bartok's music. His name comes up now and then, but people tend to prefer speaking about Stravinsky and others.
Fantastico Bela Bartok!
Ngl I was expecting someone to shout *YOOOOOOOOOOO* at the end of 15:09
Bartok. First time listening to his music. Dark and sinister sounding. Reminds me of King Crimson or Van der Graaf Generator..Pawn Hearts ..or Magma
And Voivod!
Does Mozart remind you Beyonce? Don’t be a chronological idiot, please.
Or Syd Barrett perhaps?
King crimson was influenced by Bartok
Or Kubrick
Sublime
Divine sounds abound🎼
meh
A Concerto a kedvencem, de tetszik A kékszakállú herceg vára, A csodálatos mandarin, a Magyar képek, a Cantata profana és a Divertimento is.
what an experience
I love Bartok!! I'd like to believe that he was the granddaddy of rock music but that's just me. Anyway, I would add his Piano concerto no.1(hardcore!!!), Out of Doors suite, Miraculous Mandarin, violin concerto no. 1, both late violin sonatas(the 2nd especially, is my favourite!!), sonata for two pianos and percussion, quartets 3, 4 and 5(masterpieces!!!), solo violin sonata and some of the Mikrokosmos
Rock is from Black people. Come on...
I feel like bartok is the original creator of Zelda's games music
Heavy metal/prog rock were totally influenced by Stravinsky and Bartok
I don't think he is talking about classic rock and roll, more like Metallica and Slayer, newer heavy bands take even more from composers like Bartok.
Exactly! I hear a lot of similarities to Bartok and Ginastera in bands like King Crimson and Primus
'The Shining' at around 17:00

Bohumil med trouxe me aqui através de seu livro.
Esto es hermoso, la gente debe apreciarlo:'3
english please
@@lustsoul666 jajaja.

Yo escribí bartok pero quería escribir barroc.... Supuse que así se escribiría barroca en inglés.
Es la primera vez que escucho y oigo hablar del tipo este...
Cuando tenga más tiempo lo seguiré escuchando
I don't understand you
Bela! I'm with you
Interesting works of the composer Bartok,the strings +piano gives a good effect for suspance I think.
this makes me think games like sword of mana, golden sun, etc were inspired by this in their soundtracks, they sound very alike to these, especially the first one
Omg I just had a similar thought, the strange harmonies in the first few minutes made me think of secret of mana for some reason 😳
Magnificent music! Would suit a fairy tale.
trying not to laugh at that bs
caos agradabilíssimo
love
hunting, mysterious, very soothing kind of music, although I must say, not for everyone...it requires some understanding of music (impressionism) and the use of sound to create emotions; in my humble opinion.
He knows exactly how to treat chord changing like unsure emotions and I mean the strings Chord block, not the background chord changes.
In these times its hard to listen to this music with such dynamic range, you really need to crank it to hear everything, different in a concert hall, but as a recording, fail
Listening to this, I can flat out tell you who one of Aaron Copeland's influences were. The front end of this practically is the Grand Canyon Suite, or to get the cart and horse oriented so that they will function, temporally more likely the other way round.
I like it. Like the GCS, it tells a story.
Yes.
Бела Барток для меня - квинтэссенция всей музыки ХХ века: и импрессионистов Франции, и Стравинского, и Скрябина, и Прокофьева, и Шостаковича, и Малера (то есть для меня достаточно слушать одного лишь Бартока, в котором есть всё).
Yes, I agree with you.
eh?
Интересно. Спасибо.
Da.
Wonderful collection of Bartók works. would it be too much of a pain to list the perfomers for those of us who have that neurotic need to know whom we are listening to? :) In any case thanks for posting this collection which just so happens to include several of my favorite works, heh.

your fav works are trash
Except for the one work where you have only one movement, it is a great collection. I happen to hate single movements from larger works. @@classicalmusic1175
this video needs more fucking viewers.
Szep🎵🎶🎼
Who is for this 🎶🎼🌎🥈🕛🥈🥉🥧🙏🏿🎶🎼
Danny Elfman’s soundtrack work would not exist without Bartok’s influence.
I was just thinking about Hermann’s Psycho suite in relationship to Bartók since I am a non-classical person and that’s my touchstone, and I guess I’ll mention how disappointing it is that Danny had to be involved in that shitty ego-project rehash of it. I’ll give his version of the score another listen since what you said is true, it should’ve been a match made in heaven.
Used to love listening to this and two adverts at the beginning is fine but, look at the state of it now! Riddled with adverts. Totally wasted - won’t watch again. Well done!
Not my fault. I don't place the ads on the videos, CZcams does.
Lol seeing all those yellow lines as soon as i opened the video scared me
@@classicalmusic1175 didn’t realise that. How wasteful an action. Appalling. Hope you at least gain some revenue
The first minutes reminds me the vídeo game "Medal Of Honor".
Absolutly I am
I don't suppose you have a solo cello performance of the Elgar Concerto? Quite a specific request but a good one at that.
+Maxwell Gaines Yes I do. I will upload that piece next time.
+Classical Music11 Wow. Thank you very much! You have a fantastic channel.
+Maxwell Gaines Hi Maxwell, I made a mistake. I thought you meant do I have a copy of Elgar's Cello Concerto, not a solo performance. Unfortunately I don't have a copy of a solo performance of Elgar's Cello Concerto, just a regular performance of the concerto. My apologies.
+Classical Music11 Not a problem at all. If it's not a burden, Any performance of the Elgar Concerto will do. Also, what's your name? I'd like to be able to refer to you properly. Thanks again.
+Maxwell Gaines That is no problem. I can upload a standard performance of Elgar's cello concerto. My name is Carl.
slept on Bartok for too long sicc shit 1000
Oh, would you look at the time! It's time to clear all the ads manually so I don't have to deal with them in three hours' time!

Hi there! I like Bartok, too! Can I be a pussy cat, too even though I was not scared at 18:39? I love pussies, especially Hello Kitty! I hope all the needy kitty cats at the shelters get rescued for good homes super soon!

@@voceanima3008 Before (the "dark triad" and then some) Jo Stalin (think Trump lite), communism was the cure for tzarism, which was also totally evil. Sooo. The political positions adopted by people (perhaps especially the put-down Jews) in a country in total upheaval isn't as easy to rationalise as historical re-assessment makes it appear. All human groups follow self-obsessed messianic figures who appear to be on the winning side for a while. Always have, always will. It's a wired-in tendency we share with other primates.

JESUS CHRIST HOW HORRIFYING
read a book. you are horrifying
I was born the day after Bartok died. Early on the morning of September 27, 1956. I am a composer with no training. I composed this song, that includes 44 key changes, and uses 12 keys, one them being Hungarian, which I use quite often.

Ah I hear a lot of Allan Holdsworths playing in this.
Béla Bartok born in 1881 died in 1945, Allan Holdsworth born 1946 died 2017, who copied the other one?
non plus ultra
Tanıtım yazınızda bazı yerleri tekrarlamışsınız. Bu özensizlik üzücü ve Bartok' a saygısızlık olarak düşünüyorum. Ayrıca Bartok "BESTOF" yapılacak bir besteci değildir. Bach ta da "BEST OF" yapamayız. Onların her notası eşit düzeyde önemlidir.

Why to be with.
the vampire composer. meh...not my cup of tea. brilliant. always loud. always. strife, hate, blood. FU Bartok. You are a genius. FU.

Margaret McCumber didn't see or feel the microscopic brain parasites as they slowly grew and spread. But the new and nightmarish thoughts told the story. However, I am so out of here.
Atroce, inécoutable, je ne comprends pas mdr que quelqu'un m'explique
À ton goût o écoute p vous parfois vous êtes froide comme in canard trôp compliqueé.
C'est sur que c'est d'un tout autre niveau "qu'au clair de la lune.." Il faut savoir qu'avec son ami Zoltan Kodaly, Bartok a beaucoup étudié la musique folklorique hongroise et transylvanienne
