The definitive edition (1987) of the piano teaching classic. Includes an introduction by the composer's son Peter Bartók.In 1945 Bela Bartok 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 Bartók's life and the rhythms and harmonies employed create music that is as modern today as when the cycle was written.The 153 pieces making up 'Mikrokosmos' are divided into six volumes arranged according to technical and musical difficulty.The Mikrokosmos is a cycle of 153 pieces for piano written with a didactic purpose. That is to give the piano pieces which can be used from the very beginning and then going on it is graded according to difficulties. The title Mikrokosmos can be interpreted as a series of pieces in many different styles representing a small world. This edition has been written in English French German and Hungarian.
