BOX 2 Printed Music, 1910-1920
This series includes fourteen compositions that were published between 1910 and 1920. The only work not by Bartók is Zoltán Kodály’s 10 piéces pour le piano (10 Pieces for Piano). Of note are four publisher proofs dating from 1910-1911 for first editions of Bartók’s early works, which he annotated in red crayon and pencil. These include selections from Gyermekeknek (For Children), Két elégia (Two Elegies), op.8b, Ket román tánc (Two Romanian Dances), op. 8a, and Rhapsodie pour 2 pianos à 4 mains (Rhapsody for 2 Pianos and Four Hands). These scores document changes that the composer made to these works during the publishing process, and are significant due to a paucity of primary source material for his compositions from this time period. The rest of this series consists of his piano music, such as 3 Burleszk (3 Burlesques pour le piano), op. 8c, and Gyászinduló (Kossuth), as well as his Rhapsodie pour piano et l'orchestre (Rhapsody for Piano and Orchestra).
Arranged alphabetically by title.
