Congratulations I play for about 1 to two years and I actually making a course about piano in a University that is my first exercise quite easy but really beautyful.
Thanks for sharing this! I bought the 1st volume in an Old Books' flea market in Spain, and it helped me so, so much in understanding music & improving my way of playing! A genius in music not only creates something worth being listened to, but can change our perception of the world. Undoubtedly, Bartók was a big genius.
Yes. This was written by Bartok for his young son Peter. He has been quoted as saying it had unresolved problems. This is my second listen. Wish I could play it. [trombone player here]
Every human approaching a piano keyboard should be handed the first volume of Mikrokosmos. Ocatave/unison is what it all becomes about. The synchronicity of the hands, the fingers. And then, gently, imitation.
I heard Claude Hellfer perform all three Piano Sonatas of Pierre Boulez in Aspen, Colorado the summer of 1974. He is capable of extraordinary artistry. That he has recorded these pieces should tell you what he sees in them, and what we all should. The name gives it away: the large in the small.

Hi, Thanks for posting Mikrokosmos! I went to iTunes to purchase this (complete) but don't see Claude Helffer in list, is this recording not available in US? Time to add much more Bartók to mix - sick to death of method books. :)
I know this is a really beginnerish question! On the first few pieces is it ok that i play them by just following the direction of the melody, rather than specifically reading each note and figuring out where it is on the piano? Aka... Im reading it by following the intervals rather than the specific notes?
Ignorance is the worst enemy of human kind so why dislike his comment its nothing offensive it dose sound a little chilldlish and that dosnt meen its not good
I have to cry hearing this, i started this when i was 4 or 5. Now i am conservatory student, i came such a long way...

Wonderful pianist, playing music that is, for all its simplicity, beautiful when played by such a pianist.

Do it! Transpose it! Get a partner!

It's from book 1 of a series so it's the beginner piece. I suggest you go listen to the stuff from books 4 and 5 and see if you feel the same.

Что это?Набор нот,одно и тоже играет
バルトークのミクロコスモスは、全音音階、対位法的書法に溢れている。アルベルティーバスの上に、メロディーが鳴ると言う形で、左右の手を不均等に使い続ける事も無い。バイエルは、似た形で書き始められるが、シェーンベルクの音列と言う意味では、似た物ばかりに聴こえる。Ｅ→Ｄ→Ｃの下降音型ばかりが響いている。作曲家の発想の弱点が露呈され、作曲技術の錬磨に繋がらない。その点、バッハの、インヴェンションとシンフォニアは、素晴らしいと言う他ない。同じ曲だが、フリーでマンの為に写譜された一冊など、１５曲で変位記号の少ない曲をぐるっと回るように並んでいる。音列という視点で見ても、作曲家の実力の高さは、別格であり、時代を越えている。残った事自体、地球人の遺産である。ドビュッシーのエチュードは名曲であるが、初級者にとって技術的に難し過ぎる。作曲者の晩年の、気難しさも、問題点である。日本人の作曲家である、三善晃の子供用から、演奏会用に至る作品群である、練習曲は、東洋人の手と音色という問題を、考慮に入れながら書かれた立派な作品である。和声的にはバルトーク以後であるが、独創的である。まだ、弾かれる事が少ない。
