Description:
The Hungarian composer Zoltán Kodály (1882-1967) based almost all his works on traditional Hungarian folk music, as did his contemporary and compatriot Béla Bartók. His 'Peacock Variations' (1939) are based on the melody of one of the oldest Hungarian traditional songs 'Felszállott a Páva', which means 'peacock' in Hungarian, and consists of numerous variations on the main theme. Conductor and arranger Jan Cober has arranged a faithful version of this superb work.
