Two new features this month shine a light on Pierre-Laurent Aimard’s long-standing artistic relationship with György Kurtág.

Le Monde offers a close portrait of Aimard’s deep connection to Kurtág’s music, exploring the intensity and focus that characterise both his collaborations with the composer and his interpretations of this repertoire. 

Alongside this, Tim Rutherford-Johnson’s interview on Bachtrack delves further into Aimard’s perspective on contemporary music, reflecting on Kurtág’s legacy and the continuing vitality of his music today.

Both pieces highlight Aimard’s enduring commitment to championing the composers who have shaped his musical life.
