Bartok Repertoire
on: November 01, 2015, 05:11:55 PM
Hello! I am trying to decide which Bartok piece to being working on. I have narrowed down my selection to either the Op. 14 Suite or Allegro Barbaro. Which of these two would you say is considered more difficult? I also really enjoy the Romanian Dances Op. 8a, but I'm not sure I'm ready to tackle that piece yet. If you have any other suggestions for me to consider, that would be great too! Thanks in advance!

I recommend Bartok's Romanian Dance Op.8b, Six dances in Bulgarian Rhythm, or Romanian Folk Dances. The Op.14 Suite is harder than the Allegro Barbaro.
