The most important class, however, for me and for hundreds of other Hungarian musicians, was the chamber-music class. From about the age of fourteen, and until graduation from the Academy, all instrumentalists except the heavy-brass players and percussionists had to participate in this course. Presiding over it for many years was the composer Leó Weiner, who thus exercised an enormous influence on three generations of Hungarian musicians.

Milestones in Music – Harmony of Past and Future

Bartók: The Wooden Prince – Suite, BB 74

Dohnányi Orchestra Budafok
Performing and conductor: Gábor Hollerung

The oeuvre of Bartók was in itself a milestone in the search for a way forward in the 20th century, but within that The Wooden Prince was a particular special moment. Just as the irreconcilable difference between man and woman and the general darkness of their relationship is formulated in Duke Bluebeard’s Castle, so the resignation and sacrifice undertaken for each other in the hope of enduring love is played out in The Wooden Prince.
