Leo Weiner (1885-1960) was recognized both as a composer and a teacher of chamber music. World-famous Hungarian musicians and string quartets pointed to him as their legendary maestro. His transcriptions for string orchestra of ten pieces from Bartok's cycle For Children are a masterpiece from a genuine musician: in it, besides simply providing study pieces for young orchestras, he also, and far more importantly, introduces learners of string instruments to the unique, incomparable musical world that Bartok's pieces for children inhabit.This volume, previously available in the Leggiero series, is now, in a new guise, part of the series Treasury for String Ensembles.CONTENTS: Andante grazioso (Jatekdal); Vivace (Lanc-lanc); Moderato sostenuto (Koertanc); Allegro robusto; Allegretto (Nem messze van ide Margitta); Kanon.
