Wigmore Hall’s celebration of the life and works of György Kurtág opens with an exploration of the coruscating emotions and expressive intensity of the great Hungarian composer’s Kafka Fragments. Soprano Rebecca Hardwick, whose doctoral research surveys the work’s 40 ‘fragments’, discusses their cumulative power with Toby Young, Professor of Composition at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, ahead of her late-night performance on 18 September.
