Bartók spent many of his adult years traveling around modern-dayHungaryandRomaniacollecting folk music. His educational vocation led him to write down many folk songs as he traveled, as these works would later be used for either educational purposes or concert performances and recitals. However, most of the early songs he collected called for a singer with piano accompaniment, but had the piano double the melody following the voice.
Béla Viktor János Bartók was a Hungarian composer, pianist, and ethnomusicologist. He is considered one of the most important composers of the 20th century; he and Franz Liszt are regarded as Hungary’s greatest composers.
