今日はバルトーク・ベーラの命日。1945年、白血病によって没、享年64。病院は「West Side Hospital」とされているサイトが多い(日本のWikipediaが「ブルックリン病院」としているのは典拠不明)。
亡くなる4日前までピアノ協奏曲第3番の作曲が続けられ、残り17小節のみ弟子のシェルイに託したのが最後となった。現在はそのシェルイによって完成された形で演奏されるが、その完成版に対するクリティカル版も存在する。ヴィオラ協奏曲はソロパートのみが完成され、管弦楽パートはスケッチのみに留まった。弦楽四重奏曲第7番の計画もあった様だが、ほぼ未着手に終わっている。
没後は遺言に基づきソ連共産党の影響下の故郷への移葬は行われず、ニューヨークのファーンクリフ墓地 https://maps.app.goo.gl/qhM1ptxu6Uo1u6E4A に埋葬された。1988年に共産党政権ではなくなったハンガリーに移され、改めて国葬が行われた上でファルカシュレーティ墓地に埋葬された。https://maps.app.goo.gl/2SbtgqFjz67ns5xdA

This morning's #workout #music is from Xavier Díaz-Latorre playing compositions from Bach, Telemann and Weiss. He does this one hour performance all from memory as far as I can tell. Impressive. I first got into Lute music in the mid 70s via #progRock bands I discovered in elementary school. Primarily Focus, but also Jethro Tull. I recognize several of the themes here from Jan Akkerman's contributions. Good stuff.
