The piano
series entitled Games,
written from 1973
onwards, was conceived as
a piano method. As the
years went by, the series
lost its didactic
character, at it came to
be seen as a document
from Kurtág's
workshop, offering a key
to his grander symphonic,
chamber and vocal works
as well.Tenth volume is
divided into two parts:
In the first half,
earlier, hitherto
unpublished pieces line
up from Suite, written in
1943, to the 1980s,
providing insight into
the development of
Kurtág's musical
language. The second half
includes pieces composed
between 2002 and 2011.
The movements, often
aphorismic in their
briefness, hide
associations with various
aspects of European music
history.Many of them are
hommage or in memoriam
pieces, or subjective
personal messages to
friends, colleagues, and
beloved family members -
and thereby to all
music-loving people. This
publication is printed on
high quality, durable
paper made from renewable
raw materials in an
environmentally friendly
way.
