Artist:Zoltan Kodaly
Title:Hary Janos-Suite, Summer Evening, Variations on a Hungarian Folk Song (The Peacock)

The average concert-goer thinks of Zoltan Kodaly as a composer of choral works and the creator of a concept of music pedagogy known world-wide by his name. Yet his oeuvre is also rich in chamber works, songs and orchestral pieces; indeed, he wrote pieces for the latter apparatus throughout his career as a composer.
