Béla Bartók's (1881-1945) Four Orchestra Pieces, Op. 12 premiered in January 1922 in Budapest, but did not become one of Bartók's best-known works until its popularity was revived by Pierre Boulez in the 1970s. Bartók's influences are on display in these pieces, including that of Debussy in the first movement "Preludio," and Beethoven's Ninth Symphony in the Scherzo. Four Orchestra Pieces is considered a bridge stylistically between Bartók's early works like Duke Bluebeard's Castle and his mature works like The Miraculous Mandarin.
