Béla Bartók

Béla Viktor János Bartók (1881-1945) was a Hungarian composer, pianist, and Ethnomusicologist. He is regarded as one of the most important composers of the 20th century. Him and Franz Liszt are regarded as one of the best Hungarian composers of all time. Bartók was a unique composer who followed the roots and studied folk music and was one of the founders of ethnomusicology. Due to his unique type of music, most people are torn between liking his music or thinking it’s odd and weird.

Béla Bartók was the first ever composer to use the term “snap” pizz (aka Bartók Pizz). Bartók’s most notable piece(s) were his string quartet’s which were his most famous. (My personal favorite is his 4th string quartet, specifically his 5th movement, its really cool listen to it).
