György Kurtág: Colindă-Baladă

Season Ticket ’Jublilee Oratorio’ SUN. MOON. FOLK SONGS. “A continuation of ‘Cantata profana,’ ” said Romanian-Hungarian music historian Ferenc László about György Kurtág’s Colindă-Baladă. In his cantata, Kurtág used the text and melody of a traditional Romanian-language Christmas carol collected by Hungarian composer Bartók: the song tells the story of love between the Sun and the Moon, brother and sister.

Kurtág György: Colindă-Baladă

Jubileumi oratóriumbérlet NAP. HOLD. NÉPDALOK. „A Cantata profana folytatása.” – mondta Kurtág Colindă-Baladă című darabjáról László Ferenc, romániai magyar zenetörténész.

A tenorszólóra, kórusra és kamaraegyüttesre írt kompozíció egyszerre idézi meg Bartók szellemét, és emlékezik vissza Kurtág Romániában töltött ifjúkorára, miközben az archaikus szövegen keresztül kapcsolatot tart mind a pogány, mind a keresztény régmúlttal. A Falun népdalfeldolgozás-sorozat több szempontból is fontos darabja Bartók életművének. Dedikációja Bartók második feleségének, Pásztory
