YE-DID-BACH
hommage a György and Márta Kurtág
Duet for two French horns in F
In YE-DID-BACH I incorporated segments of Bach’s preludes and fugues from the Well-Tempered Clavier to create integration between various aesthetics and systems of the past and of our time. In some cases, I re-wrote segments of Bach’s music and in other cases I made adaptations of longer parts.
YE-DID-BACH is an homage to György and Márta Kurtág because I love how György Kurtág worked Bach’s material and in particular György Kurtág’s transcriptions for piano 4 hands in Játékok collection, and also, I am deeply moved by listening to recordings of György and Márta Kurtág playing 4 hands.
Márta was the wife of György Kurtág, with whom she performed for 60 years! They often played from his collection Játékok.
