Music by 20th-century composers.
Béla Bartók XV.
Bartók, as well as Franz Liszt, are seen as the greatest Hungarian composers. Bartók was one of the key figures in classical music of the previous century, but he has also been important for Hungarian folk music. We’ll hear his music on Concertzender every month.
