About this product
György Kurtág (born 1926) composed his Kafka-Fragmente in the mid-1980s; it's forty settings of Franz Kafka text fragments remain one of his most often-performed works, commonly presented in staged versions. Many of the movements are extremely brief; in the present recording 11 of the movements are less than 0 30 long. This often highly virtuosic and demanding score is interpreted by soprano Caroline Meltzer and violinist Nurit Stark, artists with a strong commitment to contemporary music who've collaborated with composers such as Aribert Reimann, Sofia Gubaidulina and Viktor Suslin.

Ltd 350, gatefold, insert, The epic doom metal band Capilla Ardiente (a Spanish expression translated as Inchburning chapelInch) was founded in Chile's capital Santiago in 2006. Up until now, they have issued one EP and two albums, »Bravery, Truth And The Endless Darkness« (2014) and »The Siege« (2019), both for High Roller Records.
