Editorial Review:
Bartk's Concerto for Orchestra was the biggest public success of his career. He had previously been considered a minority interest, an uncompromising modernist. But the concerto was approachable and brilliantly effective; typical of the relatively straightforward style of his last works. It remains today his most performed work.

The use of the term concerto was intended to signify something similar to the Baroque concerto grosso, with different sections of the orchestra being displayed in turn. The five-part form is unusual, but relates to the symmetrical or "arch" forms that Bartk had used in many earlier works.
