Description: The quadrennial Aliénor Composition Competition began in 1982 to encourage composers to write new music for the harpsichord. For the 2012 anthology, the requirement was that the pieces should be inspired stylistically by Béla Bartók's Mikrokosmos.
Notes: For harpsichord.

Includes preface and biographical notes on the composers.

"Appropriate for amateur harpsichodists ... Of moderate difficulty"--from publisher's website.
