For Apple, Kurtág \"shaped me as a musician and a human being, perhaps more than anyone else.\" The album alternates German Romantic songs by Schubert and Brahms with Kurtag's vocal works, five of which are world premiere recordings. Kurtag himself plays piano on two of the Schubert and Brahms pieces, and is joined by two of Apple's trusted old friends, Pierre-Laurent Emard and James Baillieu, all produced by Kurtag. The film ends with an interesting interview by Apple with Kurtag, aka \"Gyuri bacsi (Uncle George)\". Apple says, \"The purpose of the album is to showcase Gyuri's work in a new way,\" says Apple. The purpose of this album is to give you a glimpse into the infinite universe of Gyuri Kurtag.He is a reserved and demanding self-critic, a hesitant researcher, one who never fails to question his inner self, an unpretentious intellectual, a composer par excellence, and an extraordinary human being.\"\n\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50865319575841,"sku":"4589538818807","price":189.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538818807.jpg?v=1742718765","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-dk\/products\/4589538818807","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
