Album of clarinetist Gellért Tihanyi, a veteran of the Hungarian new-music ensemble Group 180, compiled of pieces of different 20th century composers, from Stravinsky and Bartók, through Kurtág to Steve Reich and Bela Farago The CD features some outstanding musicians like Márta Kurtág, or Imre Rohmann. "I do not consider everyone I have taught a pupil of mine. But it was my choice to make Gellért Tihanyi my pupil in his student days, and in the past 25 years I have considered him my colleague. I have been able to entrust him with several of my compositions because his instrumental training and incredible empathy guarantee that we understand each other." as György Kurtág puts it in the booklet text.

Press Quotes
Kurtág's Hommage a R.Sch. (Schumann) make a clever set of calling cards for Gellért Tihanyi, a veteran of the Hungarian new-music ensemble Group 180, and show that he can establish a mood quickly, and be lyrical, acrobatic, trenchant or self-effacing as required.
