Two masters of jazz and classical explore the folk recordings of Bela Bartók on new album

Bartók’s long dead folk songs rise again in Transylvanian Dance. Recorded live as part of the Retracing Bartók project that took place in Timișoara, Romania, the eight songs run the gamut of traditional folk ballads to the lively title track with the two musicians improvising around the original scores. The recording echoes across the ages with its moving and emotional material and spectacular performance.
