In 1926, at the end of the year's teaching commitments, Bartók's family went to stay with his sister for a holiday. Bartók remained in Budapest so as to compose uninterrupted, with the chief intention of writing a piano concerto. He felt the need to replenish his piano repertoire for public performance, as most of his piano compositions dated from the previous decade. Before starting on the concerto, however, he made a large quantity of sketches for solo-piano pieces. From these sprang the "Out of Doors" suite, the Nine Little Piano Pieces and the PS, as well as the Piano Concerto - hence the name frequently applied to this year in Bartok's career, the 'piano music year'. (Thesis by Anthony Damian Ritchie, University of Canterbury, 1986)
I'm hearing Bach influence. The music is somewhat beyond me, but I think I am now hearing consistent atonal intervals like seconds and minor ninths, that draw us in.
The work is broken up into three sections, the first section is based on contrapuntalism. Thus, what you're hearing is Bartok's purposeful "Bachian" intervallic and fugualism.
If I had written this and handed it to my music teacher, she'd slam the piano shut and would say "What the heck are you taking lessons for?!" I kid you not.
That's so fascinating about this music, isn't it? Some moments are pure beauty to me, others I find difficult to understand. Knowing Bártoks musical genius and the fact that he controlled every style since the Medieval era, he must be alluding to a beauty I do not know yet in those passages!
You're not supposed to leak the bartok conspiracy (the only reason people listen to bartok is to make themselves seem cultured) (bartok wasnt even a real person) (he was invented by the hungarian government to promote hungarian tourism) (same goes for ligeti, have you ever seen a real person with lips as big as his? no, only a robot could achieve that)
Most of the time he just copies the melody or abstract idea, places it in a different key and sets it to come in on a different beat. Some of it is also similar to what Jacob Collier said about wrong notes - they’re wrong until you give them context. I say that the Allegro in A major has the most standard harmonies out of these selections.
He's a genuine genius who knew how to often hide his genius behind his seeming naivity. Look at him becoming a lyricist, then a percussionist..sometimes a flyer!

I don't understand this music. Or maybe there is nothing to be understood.

I think Bartok intentionally tried to be un-melodic ! The question is why ?
I think these pieces are completely the opposite, the melodies are really simple and evident...
Most of the time he just copies the melody or abstract idea, places it in a different key and sets it to come in on a different beat.
Some of it is also similar to what Jacob Collier said about wrong notes - they’re wrong until you give them context.

Bartok composes like a 2nd year piano student playing random notes on the piano out of boredom.
Ok, then go ahead and show me your genius
@@SV_ScoreVideos no
Haha, both of you're right, well, in a way. Remember: he was a great educator who knew young mind.
You can barely play fur elise and greensleeves. Try these Bartok pieces is it too hard for you? He was a genius
@@elionthekeys yes dude... that was like 7 years ago when I started learning to play. Nice try
Much ado about nothing !
what a mess.
its called polymodality
No
@@GUILLOM yeah
