You are purchasing high quality sheet music PDF files suitable for printing or viewing on digital devices.The original form of this composition was a sonatina for piano, composed in 1915. It was written at the time of The Wooden Prince, the Second String Quartet and a number of folksong settings (the Romanian Kolinda Melodies for Piano, the Romanian Folk Dances, the 15 Hungarian Peasant Songs as well as choruses and other songs). Bartók, in his dual capacity as both composer and folk music researcher, was intensively preoccupied during this period with the music he collected in Transylvania, and it is clear just how important the Romanian material was for him by the number of compositions it spawned. Bartók prepared the orchestral version of the sonatina in 1931. I find that this music fits the Wind Orchestra very well.
