Bartok’s Music

Posted by: musicquotes, in Bela Bartok, Frederick Corder

“If the reader were so rash as to purchase any of Bela Bartok’s compositions, he would find that they each and all consist of unmeaning bunches of notes, apparently representing the composer promenading the keyboard in his boots. Some can be played better with the elbows, others with the flat of the hand. None require fingers to perform or ears to listen too.”
–Frederick Corder
