Composer: Bela Bartok

Instrumentation: Classical Guitar

Bartok's Mikrokosmos needs no introduction, even to non-pianists. A pillar of piano tuition throughout many decades, it has inspired many compositions and arrangements. Now it is the turn of Siegfried Steinkogler to tackle these pieces and bring them to the attention of guitarists.

Steinkogler's arrangements for advanced guitarists will be suitable for tuition, private study or the concert hall. He has selected sixteen pieces from Books 3, 4 and 5 of Bartok's pedagogical cycle, always trying to remain faithful to the original detail and key of each piece.
