Bartok, Hungary, and the Renewal of Tradition: Case Studies in the Intersection of Modernity and Nationality - California Studies in 20th-Century Music
David E. Schneider
It is well known that Bela Bartok had an extraordinary ability to synthesize Western art music with the folk music of Eastern Europe. This study presents a different approach to Bartok that acknowledges the composer's debt to a variety of Hungarian music traditions as well as to influential contemporaries such as Igor Stravinsky.
