The Angry Bear is the last piece from the piano cycle Fables by Bohuslav Martinů.

The Fables are including five simple piano pieces (On the Farm, The Poor Rabbit, Monkeys, The Chicken, The Angry Bear) composed by Martinů in Paris in 1924.

Bohuslav Martinů:
Despite the fact he spent his last two decades in exile, Bohuslav Martinů (1890–1959) was among the most prolific composers of the twentieth century. Born in a church tower above the Czech–Moravian Highlands, he established himself in both Prague and Paris before the Nazi invasion of France forced him to flee to the United States. He became a star in the U.S. during the 1940s, but returned to Europe permanently in 1956. His folk-cantata The Opening of the Wells (1955) became enormously popular in Czechoslovakia, dealing with themes of purity, rebirth, and the pain of exile.
