In Conversation with Paavali Jumppanen: Kurtág & Friends

Before ANAM’s much-anticipated performance commemorating 100 years of the esteemed composer, György Kurtág, join us for a special conversation session with ANAM Artistic Director, Paavali Jumppanen.

In 2026, we will be celebrating the centenary of one of the great living composers – György Kurtág. Heard at several ANAM concerts over the years, Kurtág’s music can feel like overhearing a whispered confession, a sudden cry, or a fleeting memory. All condensed into crystalline form.
