Digital Booklet

Grammy Award nomination – Best Classical Compendium, 2017
Featuring the Asko/Schönberg Ensemble, the Netherlands Radio Choir, and conductor Reinbert de Leeuw, this release is part of a landmark project to record the works of Hungarian composer György Kurtág. A student of Messiaen and Milhaud and a contemporary of Ligeti, Kurtág’s vocal works are intricate, effecting, and sometimes unnerving, and are beautifully rendered in this recording made at the Musikgebouw in Amsterdam and the Philharmonie in Haarlem between 2013 and 2016.
"There were moments when I was overwhelmed at first hearing… and we could embrace the result immediately. But sometimes we were critical. The fact that Reinbert always listened to our remarks and re-recorded fragments or even whole pieces makes this publication authentic."
- György Kurtág, composer
