Bartok: Mikrokosmos, Vol. 3

With Volume 3, Mikrokosmos reaches an intermediate level, presenting polyphonic studies, changing meters, and modal influences that challenge developing pianists. These pieces are both pedagogical and concert-worthy, reflecting Bartók’s genius for blending folk idioms with modernist techniques. As Gramophone observed, the series represents “piano teaching elevated to an art form.”
