Hommage à Béla Bartók

This work was commissioned by the Hungarian Radio for a concert expressly in memory of Bela Bartok. The composer's name was an inspiration and, through the notes B (flat), E and A along with their transpositions, lies at the basis of the work. Ever-present is the spirit of Bartok himself: a composer who oscillated between the quest for the original wellspring of music on the one hand and sophisticated refinement on the other.
