This compilation of essays spans a wide range of individual perspectives within the varied disciplines related to Bart�k's life and work. The nineteen chapters together constitute a broad yet integrated picture of the Hungarian composer's contributions to twentieth-century music and scholarship. While self-contained, each chapter contributes to a larger scheme of interrelated subjects that provide a coherent view of the Bart�k field. The book also contains integrative theoretic-analytical approaches to Bart�k's musical language that demonstrate relations between the modalities and rhythms of folk music and his more abstract musical principles. Some chapters examine Bart�k's folk-music materials in connection with his fieldwork, transcription techniques, classification methodology, and compositional influences. Other chapters explore Bart�k's system of composition from its early stages to maturity by way of his abstract works and his folk-music transcriptions. The book also addresses the relevance of Bart�k's work to broader historical, philosophical, and folkloristic, compositional, performance, and reception issues.
