Kafka Fragments: Arnold / Pogossian
Wednesday, January 28, 2009 8:00 pm
György Kurtág: Kafka Fragments
Tony Arnold, soprano
Movses Pogossian, violin
Gÿorgy Kurtág's Kafka Fragments present a unique and monumental exploration of the world of Franz Kafka. Using forty excerpts primarily from Kafka's letters and diaries, Kurtág spins a kaleidoscopic web of musical styles representing extreme and disparate moments within a life. By turns introspective, dramatic, penetrating and humorous, this hour-long journey for voice and violin is an evening to be savored. Arnold and Pogossian have worked extensively with the composer; they delight in conveying the spirit and intensity of this great master to audiences worldwide.
