In 1916, as part of the series Az elemi zongorajáték gyakorlati tananyaga [Practical Repertory for Elementary Piano Playing], Rózsavölgyi & Co. published Bartók's selection of twelve pieces from the collection usually given the title Notenbüchlein für Anna Magdalena Bach. A revised 1923 edition added one more piece. The contents of our edition are an identical reprint of the 1923 version, including Bartók's in-depth preface in both Hungarian and German and the footnotes he added to the individual pieces (also provided here in an English translation).Johann Sebastian Bach gave his second wife Anna Magdalena two manuscript music-books which contain, besides his own works,compositions by other contemporaries. The present selection includes 13 pieces from the second book (dated to 1725). In der beim Budapester Musikverlag Rózsavölgyi & Co. erschienenen Reihe Az elemi zongorajáték gyakorlati tananyaga [Praktischer Lehrstoff des elementaren Klavierspiels] wurde 1916 eine aus 12 Stu cken bestehende Auswahl Béla Bartóks aus der unter dem Titel Notenbu chlein fu r Anna Magdalena Bach bekannten Sammlung veröffentlicht. Deren im Jahre 1923 veröffentliche revidierte Ausgabe wurde durch ein weiteres Stu ck ergänzt. Der Inhalt der vorliegenden Ausgabe deckt sich mit dem der Edition das Jahres 1923 (die Noten bringen wir als Reprint) einschließlich des Vorworts Bartóks in ungarischer und in deutscher Sprache sowie seiner Randnotizen zu den einzelnen Stu cken, die wir auch in englischer Übersetzung wiedergeben.

Bartók composed his first pedagogical collection For Children between 1908 and 1911. The first edition was issued between 1909 and 1911 in four volumes, comprising two of Hungarian and two of Slovak folk song arrangements. After moving to America, Bartók considered it important to produce new editions of his earlier works. Thus in autumn 1943, together with his new publisher Boosey & Hawkes, he planned a new edition of For Children, and to this end completely revised the collection. Although Bartók had already completed his revision by the end of 1943, the revised edition was only issued in 1946. The pieces were published without titles in the first edition, but the folksong lyrics were included. These lyrics, deemed unnecessary for the non-Hungarian audiences, were not taken over to the American revised edition however, a significant number of pieces were provided with a title conveying their mood and their background in folk music and folk life. The American edition omitted the folk songs lyrics that seemed unnecessary to the audience there, but the titles of the first edition were replaced with English titles (some with the same meaning and some with modified interpretations) conveying each song's mood and background in folk music and folk life.The present edition - which contains the same scores as those in Volume 37 of the Béla Bartók Complete Critical Edition (Z. 15037) - is based on the revised version that the composer made in 1943 for the new edition, to which he also referred to as ''corrected''. We have added Hungarian translations to the English titles but we have also restored the original collection of folk song texts with parallel English translations. The pieces discarded from the revised version, as well as early versions that are significantly different from the revised version, are included in the Appendix. This publication contains a preface and editorial comments in both Hungarian and English.

'The significance of the Rhapsody composed in 1904 in Gerlicepuszta and Pozsony is well shown by the fact that Bartók subsequently reserved the designation 'Opus 1' of his last, mature opus numbering for this piece. By choosing this genre Bartók was clearly following in Liszt's footsteps. But he did not merely follow the Hungarian Rhapsodies with their parading of folkloristic art songs in a virtuoso instrumental fantasy. The formal coherence of Bartók's work allows us to infer the influence of the large-scale Liszt compositions he then knew, such as the B minor Sonata. Unlike Liszt, Bartók builds his Rhapsody not on familiar melodies but on themes of his own invention, yet hisstyle is still that of nineteenth-century folkiness, and draws on the art-music tradition based on the verbunkos and the csárdás.'

Béla Bartók's Mikrokosmos series contains 153 progressive piano pieces published across six volumes by Editio Musica Budapest. The series, which was written between 1926 and 1939, starts with very easy beginner etudes and progresses to difficult advanced technical displays, and remains an essential part of modern piano lessons and education. The word Mikrokosmos may be interpreted as a series of pieces in many different styles, representing a small world. Or it may be interpreted as world of the little ones, the children.Der Mikrokosmos ist ein Zyklus von 153 Stücken für Klavier, zu didaktischen Zwecken geschrieben (Band 1: Z. 125, Band 2: Z. 126, Band 3: Z. 127, Band 4: Z. 128, Band 5: Z. 129, Band 6: Z. 130). Das bedeutet, dass von Anfang an kleine Klavierstücke g eübt werden können, um dann darauf weiter aufzubauen, da die Stücke entsprechend ihrem Schwierigkeitsgrad angeordnet sind. Das Wort Mikrokosmos kann als eine Serie von Stücken in verschiedenen Stilen verstanden werden, die zusammen eine kleine Welt b ilden. Oder man kann es als ‚die Welt der Kleinen, der Kinder' verstehen. (Aus einem Interview des WNYC, New York, Anfang 1945, im Rahmen einer Sendung mit dem Titel Fragen Sieden Komponisten.).

A collection of beginning piano pieces based on folk songs and dances. A perfect introduction to Bartok's Mikrokosmos Book 1. Includes text in English and German. This collection, in my opinion, could be an ear-opener for the young student who has experienced Book One of any series, is secure in five-finger positions and enjoys new experiences! The new sounds will be exciting for young ears, especially if the teacher is enthusiastic! You can help their acceptance of these 'new' sounds and rhythms by your example. - American Music Teacher.

The 'Four Piano Pieces' (1. Study for the Left Hand, 2. Fantasy I, 3. Fantasy II, 4. Scherzo) was composed between January and October 1903. 'The 'Study for the Left Hand' is a large-scale sonata movement. The eclecticism of 'Fantasy I' composed on 8 February is well illustrated by the fact that his contemporary audience associated it with several composers' styles. The [piece] is dedicated 'to Madame Emma Gruber'.The 'Fantasy II' was written after the symphonic poem Kossuth was finished, in October 1903 in Berlin. It is a piece of Hungarian mood, which Bartok dedicated to his childhood friends 'Misses Emsy and Irmy Jurkovics'. The extraordinary 'Scherzo' that concludes theseries is dedicated to Dohnanyi. The repeated appearance of grotesque turns of phrase conjures up Liszt's 'scherzo diabolique' type.' (HCD 32524 Bartok New Series Vol. 24, Istvan G. Nemeth).
