Description

153 Progressive Piano Pieces

Volume 1 contains Nos. 1-36

Books with pink covers have text in English, French, German, and Hungarian.

The 153 pieces making up Mikrokosmos are divided into six volumes arranged according to technical and musical difficulty.

The definitive edition (1987) of the piano teaching classic. Includes an introduction by the composer's son Peter Bartók. In 1945 Bela Bartók described Mikrokosmos as a cycle of 153 pieces for piano written for “didactic” purposes, seeing them as a series of pieces in many different styles, representing a small world, or as the “world of the little ones, the children”. Stylistically Mikrokosmos reflects the influence of folk music on Bartok's life and the rhythms and harmonies employed create music that is as modern today as when the cycle was written.
