The definitive edition (1987) of the piano teaching classic. Includes an introduction by the composer's son Peter Bartók. In 1945 Bela Bartok described 'Mikrokosmos' as a cycle of 153 pieces for piano written for 'didactic' purposes, seeing them as a series of pieces in many different styles, representing a small world, or as the 'world of the little ones, the children'. Stylistically Mikrokosmos reflects the influence of folk music on Bartok's life and the rhythms and harmonies employed create music that is as modern today as when the cycle was written. The 153 pieces making up 'Mikrokosmos' are divided into six volumes arranged according to technical and musical difficulty.

Foreword to the Definitive Edition - Preface by the Composer - In Lydian Mode - Staccato and Legato (1) - Staccato and Legato (2) - In Yugoslav Style - Melody with Accompaniment - Accompaniment in Broken Triads - In Hungarian Style - Contrary Motion - Méditation - Increasing-Deminishing - County Fair - In Mixolydian Mode - Crescendo-Diminuendo - Minuetto - Waves - Unison Divided - In Transylvanian Style - Chromatics - Triplets in Lydian Mode - Melody in Tenths - Accents - In Oriental Style - Major and Minor - Canon with Sustained Notes - Pentatonic Melody - Minor Sixths in Parallel Motion - Buzzing - Line against Point - Dialogue - Melody Divided - Appendix: Exercises - Appendix: Notes
