The program includes the viola concerto movement composed in the style of Bartók and premiered in 1955, which will enter into dialogue with Bartók's piano concerto written ten years earlier. The concert will also feature the strikingly beautiful cello-piano double concerto from the late 1980s, one of Kurtág's most significant mature works, which will dovetail with the Beethoven string quartet movement that was most important to Kurtág. This will be followed by the world premiere of the single-act opera Die Stechardin. Composed between 2023 and 2025, this one-act monodrama for solo soprano presents a refined, sensitive monologue by Maria Dorothea Stechard, the prematurely deceased partner of the late 18th-century German polymath Georg Christoph Lichtenberg – a message from the afterlife and a true masterpiece of old age.
The event is taking place as part of the Kurtág 100 programme series organised by the BMC and presented by Müpa Budapest.
