Budapest Music Center - Library
1093 Budapest, Mátyás utca 8.
In the musical life at Bard College (New York), the work of György Kurtág plays a prominent role. For many years, the institution has regularly organised an annual festival to commemorate Kurtág's birthday, featuring some of the world's best-known soloists as well as the College's music students. Our concert is an extramural concert of this festival in Budapest, where festival director Benjamin Hochman plays with two Hungarian musicians - András Kemenes and Tamás Zétényi - who themselves regularly perform Kurtág's works.
