A pioneer of modern ethnomusicology, Béla Bartók unflaggingly studied the folk traditions of Central Europe. His intent was twofold: to study and promote these musics he loved so much, but also to nourish his own language as a composer. This appropriation came about on the most superficial plane, via arrangement (Three Popular Songs from Csik, Romanian
Folk Dances, Improvisations on Hungarian Peasant Songs) or imitation of peasant tunes (Two Romanian Folk Dances).
