Description:In several of his writings on folk music Bela Bartók recalls an incident I that happened to him in 1904 during a visit to a small village in Transylvania. Quite by chance he heard there an eighteen-year-old Hungarian peasant girl singing Hungarian folk songs whose construction was 2 significantly different from the songs he had known until then. This experience appealed to his imagination far deeper than chance on currencies usually do. It sparked in him a creative fire that was there after to impart to his music certain characteristics that are recognizable today as indigenous to the Bartókian style of composition. The inspirational value of the incident was rekindled by return trips to Transylvania. During these trips he was not merely listening. He began notating, melodies, building them into a coordinated collection. Soon Bartók's itinerary took him into villages populated in checkered proximity by both Hungarians and Rumanians, thence into little communities where the population was exclusively Rumanian. There he discovered that their songs were much less, if at all, influenced by the urban civilization of Western Europe than those he had collected in Hungarian villages. In an interview he gave to a Transylvanian newspaper in 1922, Bartók described the difference between the available Hungarian and Rumanian songs."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
