Description
The daily video is slightly outside the real path of the channel, and needs a little explication. On March 25th, last year, celebrating the 143rd anniversary of the birthday of the composer we discover, unexpectedly, that his pieces were receiving a really low number of listenings. Therefore we decided to play the other numbers of this collection composed in the early years of Béla Bartók's activity: Ten Easy Pieces. A collection maybe less known than "For Children" or "Mikrokosmos", but in our perspective, equally beautiful.
The image before (and after) the music is A Woman Shepherd (1922) by Gyula Derkovits, chosen by D. T. for this video.
