Kurtág once stated that Játékok is a 'pseudo-pedagogical' series. But if we believe in the earlier, broader interpretation of music-making, in which not only playing, but the artifice of composition has a place, then perhaps it can be said that on a higher level Játékok has no reason to deny its pedagogical genesis, because it tells the myth of the birth of music. In the search for the child within us it has retreated to the point where art and pedagogy have not yet parted - and foreshadows a world in which the two may once more join as one. (Miklós Dolinszky) (The Roman numerals befor track titles refer to the Volumes of Játékok, the Arabic numerals (and letters) in case of the First Volume point to the page number and the page position of the piece, in all the other Volumes show the serial number of the piece within the Volume. Roman numerals in brackets refer to the Volumes in progress, not yet in print.)

Press Quotes
the music is a tapestry of impressions and styles, memories and recreations, occasions and fantasies, with static series alternating with bustle in a manner quite similar at times to his larger-scale works. Almost as fascinating as the music are Miklós Dolinszky's essay and the black-and-white family photographs by István Huszti.
