BARTOK AS A FOLKLORIST

Network Three
on Network Three

Compiled and introduced by A. L. LLOYD
2: 1918-1945
The Years of Discovery
Bartok devoted as much time and energy to folk music as to composition. Indeed, shortly tjefore his death, he described his work in the field of folk song as ' the finest part of my life.' This second and last programme, based partly on recent researches in the Bartok Archive in Budapest, considers how Bartok established himself as a leading folklore scientist, and why he considered it so important to himself as a composer and a man. produced by DOUGLAS CLEVERDON
