KAFKA FRAGMENTS – Claire Booth (soprano) & Tamsin Waley-Cohen (violin)

KURTÁG Kafka Fragments (60’)

Comprising 40 short excerpts from Kafka’s writings, diaries, and letters – often heartfelt and confessional – Kurtág’s Kafka Fragments is a work of sparse, lyrical beauty. Scored for violin and soprano, this wide-ranging work encapsulates the scale of the human experience, from dreamlike surrealism to moments of sardonic humour and lyrical beauty.

“[Booth’s] voice blazes with energy and subsides in exhausted despair. It’s a real tour de force. She has done nothing finer.”
