A few months ago, the tacet label released my new CD featuring the complete works for flute by Hungarian composer György Kurtág. Many musician friends helped me explore the world of this great composer and capture it on CD. The recording includes several world premiere recordings. Dr Burkhard Schäfer writes for Klassik heute: It is thanks to the excellent musicians, above all the flutist Markus Brönnimann, that both the messages conveyed by Kurtág's music and the concept of the album come together in a truly delightful way. Brönnimann's deep familiarity with this music can be heard in every note; it could hardly be more intense. Another plus point of this CD is its fantastic acoustics, which help to ensure that even the smallest nuances of this unagitated yet exciting music can be experienced intensely.
