Out of Doors (Szabadban), composed by Béla Bartók in his 'piano year' of 1926.
1. With Drums and Pipes - bang bang bang WHAM bang WHAM bang WHAM. Oh yeah...
2. Barcarolla (1:51) - you can almost see the girls bumping their hips.
3. Musettes (3:50) - as in bagpipes
4. Musiques Nocturnes (6:40) - Night Musics, not Night's Music. Not sleepy or dreamy, but with senses and awareness heightened.
5. The Chase (12:01) - are those arpeggiated clusters at the opening, or screams of terror? Curiously, rather than press on towards the end, Bartok backs off as in exhaustion, with a final Chomp!
Created, edited and mastered in Digital Performer 5.13 (MOTU), using Ivory (Synthogy) sound banks. Video created in iMovie.
Disclaimer! The music score is from a Russian edition downloaded from classicscore.hut2.ru. In the US the score is administered by the Harry Fox agency. The audio is my own.

This piece dispels any possible doubt that Bartok considered the piano to be a percussion instrument.

@palmaiattila3288 3 года назад

Yes, but not only in this ingrained interpretation. In my opinion, the treatment of the piano as a percussion instrument in his interpretation was mainly due to attempts to better emphasize syncopations and other nuances in the paraphrases of rhythmic male dances. I recommend watching this short video first ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VHn_NBBIKeM.html - then coming back to "With Drums and Pipes", or choosing the "Allegro barbaro"

@jerryengelbach 2 года назад

@@translucent. No, I mean just what I said. Any doubt that Bartok considered piano a percussion instrument would be dispelled by his pieces that used it like one.

Bartok's piano music really shows his brilliance. In 1972 I bought an old used record with Bartok's piano music which included Out of Doors, Sonatine, Allegro Barbaro, A Bit Drunk and some others. I played the hell out of that record. Then I heard his String Quartet No. 4 last movement, Allegro Molto on the local college radio station and it changed my life. Bartok is one of the greatest composers ever. Sadly, Bartok died in poverty which prompted Stravinsky to change the way he went about collecting wages from his own music.

@E_FoxSnowspirit Месяц назад

Every time I listen to Bartók, my reaction is always a mix of "oooh I like this" and "who could like this?!"... hope to learn the theory behind it someday

@sevenlayer8780 4 года назад

The reason why we love Bartok so much is because he is, foremost, a composer of melody. The more you familiarize yourself with his music, the more obvious it becomes. He constructed the perfected harmonic language and aural landscapes on which to place those melodies, cocoons where they could grow and thrive.

One lifetime, SO MUCH MUSIC. This was a pleasant surprise. Bartok really speaks to my sense of rhythm and harmonic tension. Oddly enough, THE CHASE made me think of Sun Ra.

@pedroa.cantero9449 10 лет назад

En mis viajes nostálgicos a través de la música, Bartok representa un alto en el camino de esa juventud violenta y rompedora por la que solo quienes se atrevieron a volar tan alto como las águilas nos interesaban. Él fue sin duda alguna quien encarnaba el vigor insurrecto y la esperanza de un mundo donde solo la verdad triunfara, como sí la verdad tuviera una sola cara y esta no fuese su peor máscara. Pero en fin, lo propio de la juventud es barrer hacia afuera para dejar entrar aire fresco. Puertas abiertas. Y Dios sabe que Out of Doors las abre por completo hasta no dejar más que el viento nuevo y la sazón de una vida sin barreras. En Plein Air. Años aquellos de ilusión en los que creíamos que una vez cruzado el Cabo de Buena Esperanza todo era bonanza.

But what amazes me is the reason of why you are not playing in big halls in front of a huge public and being famous all around the world as one of the best interpreters of Bela Bartok. This is amazing, seriosly.

The melody comes in again at the end of the first movement and derivatives of the rhythm come before and after that part. Actually now that I'm in the second Movement I hear it in here too. But the part that really gets me is the lydian stuff around 0:28. I started learning this on the piano once and to play that part slowly while practicing it is beautiful.

@sebastianzaczek 6 лет назад

I play the piano for about 9 years now (i'm 16 now) and it took me about 4 or 5 days to learn "With drums and pipes", the second movement probably took one and a half weeks for me to learn, so the pieces aren't that hard... The difficult thing about the First movement is that you have to play many nineths in the left hand, but otherwise it's a relatively simple piece... also it is worth to mention that the piece sounds waaay better on a grand piano than on an upright... The second movement is a rhythmical challenge at first (form bars 9 to 45 it changes time signature every single bar) and memorizing all the notes and variations on the little structures will take some time, but it's certainly doable and you will find a lot of patterns in the piece... Side note: I said it only took me a little time to *learn* the pieces, not to *master* them...

@RichardASalisbury1 5 лет назад

I've loved Bartok's music for over 60 years, but find this piece terrifying. I wonder: maybe this is the out-of-doors that surrounded the peasant villages and farms of Hungary, Rumania, and Bulgaria where he searched out the music that became his music and made him as a composer. Maybe it is the out-of-doors beyond the cultivated land, before there were electric lights and maybe, where he traveled then, before there were even gas lamps--out where the night was truly dark and where there might still have been dangerous predators or at least, everywhere, strange, unknowable creatures.
