About the event

György Kurtág, a renowned contemporary composer and the last major figure of the post-war avant-garde, remains spiritually vibrant despite his old age. "Kurtág Fragments" takes us through key places in his life—Transylvania, Budapest, Vienna, London, and Paris—where his magnum opus “Fin de Partie” premiered in 2022. The film showcases his work with world-class musicians like Víkingur Ólafsson and Steven Isserlis, capturing the magical transformation of emotions into music. This feature-length documentary offers a cinematic journey into Kurtág's profound musical world.

The documentary will be screened in its original language, primarily Hungarian.
