Bela Bartok was commissioned by two friends whom he had mentored, Fritz Reiner and Josef Szigeti, to create a work for The Boston Symphony while he was dying of Leukemia. In December 1944, nine months before his death, Bartok's largest work 'The Concerto for Orchestra' premiered. The piece featured different groups of instruments showcased as solo elements while the whole work was a symphony. This was similar to the Baroque concept of "concerto Grosso" and was how the piece received its name.
