I like how he uses all these different types of folk music from all over the world

Who here thinks that that certain section of Concerto for Orchestra was meant to mock Shostakovich and his Seventh Symphony?

It's a shame that he didn't get to finish his last violin and piano conertos.

It's pretty much agreed on all around

"Thanks for Lark's Tongues in Aspic"

I figured. Some of his friends contested so that's why I asked but I think the general consensus is that he did do it to say fuck you to Shostakovich. Either way, he wasn't amused. I agree with the consensus because it is known that Bartok despised the Seventh Symphony.

What are some of /mu/'s favorite Bartok pieces? Out of Doors is mine.

String quartet No. 4, Bluebeard's castle, Dances in a Bulgarian rhythm. Music for strings, percussion and celesta.

He truly made music for the people

not really. He only made music for himself. One of the most uncompromising composers of all time.
