...Slovakia recording the songs he heard. Not content with imitating the melodies in his own music, Bartok, as he once wrote, tried to "command this musical language so completely that it becomes the natural expression of his own musical ideas." The Bach Society responded to the unique harmonies and rhythmic patterns and conveyed well the vitality Bartok found in the Rumanian villages...
Swiftly and sensuously, the couples glide in and out of each other's arms, their feet stomping to the blare of music with a strong rhythmic beat. The girls and boys are attractively dressed.

Until the early '30s, he played regularly with Louis Armstrong and later recorded with Charlie (Bird) Parker and Dizzy Gillespie...

Roger Angell of the New Yorker has called him "the archeologist" (because he picks up the ball and looks are it as if it were a fossil before he lets fly), and an early stage in his complex motion is a rhythmic shaking of the ball, in glove, shoving it down his body in an erotic dance. Tiant's family lives in Cuba, and on a recent visit George McGovern fixed it up with Fidel so that they could come and watch him pitch later in the season...
