Dohnanyi, Bartok = Hungarian. They had a flair, you know, for composition!
A "Festive" {Overture} Piano Concerto on a Night (on a Bald Mountain?)
One of the more difficult 'things' to judge in music is the amount of 'nationalist" elements there are in a piece. Clearly Tchaikovsky and Shostakovich are Russian composers who share a "Russian sense" yet they are so different in style, as well.

Music of Richard Strauss, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff and others on this week's "Evening Concert" series.
Piano + string quartet is the expected instrumentation for the piano quintet. Vaughan Williams used one of each: violin, viola, cello, double bass. here the sonic difference in that chamber ensemble tonight.
