PROGRAM:

Gÿorgy Kurtág: Kafka Fragments, op. 24

"Kafka fragments" op. 24 (1985-1987) for violin and soprano are one of the most significant works of Gÿorgy Kurtág. Inspired by parts of the Diary, letters and the short story "Preparation for a wedding in the village", Kurtág, composer of miniatures, through the unusual sound connections of voice and violin, in probably his most technically demanding composition and through its dear fragments, comes to his longest work (if we exclude two operas). French violinist, student of the great Hungarian pedagogue Tibor Varga, Pablo Schatzman returns to SOMUS after an extraordinary concert dedicated to Jewish music two years ago. Together with Juliette de Massy, ​​they have been exploring the unusual and demanding Kurtág score for several years, playing it both in concert halls and in a series of school pedagogic concerts with the aim of bringing contemporary creativity closer to young people from the most diverse regions in France.
