Urtext (1932-1939). Bartók's Mikrokosmos has been one of the milestones in pedagogical piano repertoire for 80 years - and yet it is also far more than a "classical" piano primer. These 153 piano pieces, organized in ascending order of difficulty, engage not only with technical aspects of piano playing but also with the fundamentals of composition - from "Imitation and Inversion," "Ostinato," and "Free Variations," concerning compositional technique, to mood pieces and pieces with programmatic ideas such as "Notturno," "Boating," "From the Diary of a Fly," or the famous "Six Dances in Bulgarian Rhythm." Mikrokosmos first appeared in 1940 in six volumes. Based on volume 40 of the Bartók Complete Edition published in 2020(Z. 15040), the present Urtext edition offers the series gathered in three volumes. This edition includes Bartók's preface, exercises, and notes written for the first edition. Furthermore, it also features a preface and comments by the editor, which not only discuss the genesis and the compositional sources but also provide performers, teachers and pupils alike, with authentic and detailed information about Bartók's notation and the specific performing problems of Mikrokosmos.

Une chose évidente mais que je veux rappeler: certains doigtés paraîtront quelquefois peu logiques et mal commodes. La raison est simple : lorsque j'ai doigté une formule, je la transpose telle quelle sur toute l'étendue du piano, la règle du jeu étant de faire travailler TOUS les doigts. Bien entendu dans une oeuvre ' musicale ' tout doit être fait pour que le jeu soit le plus souple et le plus naturel possible et des doigtés, ici, parfaitement justifiés en raison du but à atteindre, seraient dans un autre cas, aberrants. Ceci-dit, la méthode n'est pas nouvelle puisque le grand LISZT lui-même préconisait l'absolue interchangeabilité des doigts. N'oublions pas l'anecdote fameuse rapportée dans son livre sur ce compositeur et interprète hors-pair par Alan WALKER: juste avant un concert, où il devait jouer le 5ème Concerto de BEETHOVEN, LISZT s'était fait une coupure à l'index de la main gauche. Plutôt que d'annuler le concert, il joua le concerto sans se servir de ce doigt-là, en redistribuant les notes aux doigts restants ! / Piano
