Musique pour cordes, percussion et celesta (Bartók)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Béla Bartók composed Music for cords, percussions and celesta in 1936. This orchestral part is innovative in its composition: atonal music, rhythmic invention, chromatic language, folk and impressionist sources, succession of the movements (a slow Fugue which palpitates, a leaping Allegro, nocturne vertiginous, final joyeusement country). Filmwriter Stanley Kubrick made a clever use of this work in his film, The Shining in 1980.
