Bela Bartok Documentary | English

[@jeansimon326]

Thank you enormously for expanding my horizon of "world music" and helping me to cultivate a deeper appreciation of Bartok's legacy.

Although it covers Bartok’s entire life, this documentary focuses more specifically on his musicological research in Turkey in 1936, focusing on the similarities between Turkish and Finno-Ugric folk music. Discussion of Bartok is interspersed with multiple contemporary performances of Turkish folk songs (without subtitles). Whether Bartok catalogued any of these songs is not made clear. You don’t hear much of Bartok’s music, but there are some nice performances of the Romanian Dances starting at 17:10. For hard-core fans of Bartok or Turkish folk music only.

I thought this focus was particularly fresh. I’d never heard about this connection before

I really think it's funny when the translator translates for a guy who speaks English.

[@ashbell1046]

Hahaha. You caught that too!

[@gaiaruggiero6646]

Right! it doesn't make any sense!

[@petercallaghan9851]

I see now the connection between Bartok and Márta Sebestyén. With her, his work is in fine hands .

[@ashbell1046]

Fantastic. One itchy point though. There was NO reason to ‘overtalk translate’ the Turkish ethnomusicologist. His English was perfectly understandable

what is the first track ?????????? also in 17:30

[@soozb15]

This is from the Six Romanian Folk Dances (no. 3, In One Spot). It's very beautiful.

[@countbartok1766]

What is the last song at 1h26 ?????

[@soozb15]

I believe it is 'In One Spot', one of Bartok's Romanian Folk Dances

[@countbartok1766]

The Turks were a big, but most unfortunate part of Hungary’s history. They are not much missed.
