Bartók: 44 Duos & Original field recordings
Catalog Number: 902773DI
Bartók's 44 Duos meet the folk sources that inspired them. Violinist Alexandra Preucil and violist Antoine Tamestit weave the composer's miniatures together with eleven of his own field recordings, gathered across Central Europe a century ago.
Bartók: 44 Duos & Original field recordings
Béla Bartók composed his 44 Duos (Sz. 98, 1931) as teaching pieces, arranging authentic peasant tunes he had collected across Hungary, Romania, Slovakia and beyond. Here Alexandra Preucil (violin) and Antoine Tamestit (viola) perform them interleaved with eleven of Bartók's own original field recordings, letting listeners hear the folk songs beside their artful transformations. The pairing illuminates the composer's lifelong dialogue between ethnomusicology and composition. Ranging from dreamy laments to whirling dances, the set is a captivating journey to the roots of Bartók's music.
