Info for György Kurtág: Complete Works for Ensemble and Choir
Aufgenommen zwischen März 2013 und Juli 2016 im Amsterdamer Musikgebouw und in der Philharmonie von Haarlem, stellt dieses 3-fach Album-Set einen Meilenstein in der Dokumentation des Werks des ungarischen Komponisten György Kurtág dar. Hier sind alle Werke Kurtágs für Ensemble sowie für Ensemble und Chor versammelt. Die kundigen und präzisen Darbietungen legen von der intensiven Vorbereitungsarbeit des Ensemble Asko|Schönberg Zeugnis ab. Dirigent Reinbert de Leeuw weist darauf hin, man habe „Kurtágs Oeuvre Schritt für Schritt studiert und diese Stücke über einen Zeitraum von zwanzig Jahren wieder und wieder aufgeführt.“ De Leeuw beriet sich intensiv mit György und Márta Kurtág vor und nach jeder Aufnahmesitzung. „Es gab Momente, in denen ich schon beim ersten Hören überwältigt war“, sagt der als anspruchsvoll bekannte Kurtág, „und wo wir das Resultat sofort annehmen konnten. Aber mitunter hatten wir Kritik. Die Tatsache, dass Reinbert stets auf unsere Anmerkungen hörte und Fragmente oder gar ganze Stücke nochmals einspielte, macht diese Veröffentlichung authentisch.“
Die hier zu hörenden Werke werden chronologisch nach Kompositionsdatum präsentiert, beginnend mit den Four Capriccios (1959-1970, rev. 1993) und gefolgt von Four Songs to Poems by János Pilinszky (1975), Grabstein für Stephan (1978-79, rev. 1989), Messages of the late Miss R. Troussova (1976-80), ...quasi una fantasia... (1987-88), Op. 27 No. 2 Double Concerto (1989-90), Samuel Beckett: What is the Word (1991), Songs of Despair and Sorrow (1980-1994), Songs to Poems by Anna Akhmatova (1997-2008), Colindă- Baladă (2010), und Brefs Messages (2011).
Das ausführliche Booklet enthält alle Liedtexte mit Übersetzungen, ein Interview mit Reinbert de Leeuw, Begleittexte von Wolfgang Sandner und Paul Griffiths sowie eine Anmerkung von György Kurtag.
