Bartók New Series Disc Gets Supersonic

English

Pizzicato presented the latest Supersonic Award ? so far, albums in the series have won eight Supersonic Awards and one Excellentia Award ? to a recording of Bartók?s Music For Strings, Percussion and Celesta, Divertimento and Hungarian Sketches performed by the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Zoltán Kocsis.

 
Pizzicato?s reviewer called the recording ?excellent? or perhaps ?the best ever? of the pieces. The reviewer praised Kocsis?s ?unerring ear for all of the nuances of sound?, calling his talent ?more than remarkable, rather awesome?.
 
The reviewer said the orchestra ?shines and sparkles? as well as ?cheers and cries?.
