  • Bartok Romanian Folk Dances

    Hywel Davies has arranged the suite for cello with piano accompaniment. Contents: Stick Dance • Sash Dance • In One Spot • Dance from Bucsum • Romanian Polka • Fast Dance.  This edition varies a bit from the Luigi Silva Roumanian Folk Dances: a key change in No. 3, an octave reversal in another piece.  Certainly the font is more readable, larger in this edition.  Someone said this was “an easier edition” but only in a handful of passages  Still includes three clefs, notes are empirically the same.

  • Bartok 18 Duos (2 cellos)

    From 44 Duos for 2 Violins arranged for 2 violoncelli by Walter Kurz.  At first blush the pieces appear deceptively simple. Most of the duets can be played with a working knowledge of first and second positions. However, phrasing, dynamic markings, changes in time signature, and complex rhythms quickly reveal much more intricate music happening here. While parts appear evenly matched, it will be helpful to play with a more advanced partner. Newer students will have questions. Highly recommended because of the broad scope of skills required and, after all, it is Bartok! The 18 pieces are short, absolutely loaded with material.
