I'm not sure where to put my review. Although I purchased the SACD version of this album, I don't have an SACD player, so what I'm listening to is the CD version. So I put a review on the CD version, but will add a few notes here.
I've listened to classical music for some time, though I was largely unfamiliar with Bartok's work when I bought this disc. In fact, I mostly listened to pre-20th century classical music, and had mixed feelings about the limited amount of 20th century music ... Read More

What a great step up from the previous release.

A lover of Bartok should not be without it.
