I was delighted to receive an invitation to Kafka Fragments presented in the Dundalk Gaol last Friday night by Louth Contemporary Music Society. This was the Irish premier of the work by Gyorgy Kurtag and was performed by soprano Claire Booth and violinist Peter Manning.
The composer drew inspiration from the diaries, letters and notebooks of Franz Kafka to create this powerful work.
In the unique setting of the old Gaol in Dundalk it was an inspiring performance. Congratulations to the performers and to Eamonn Quinn and Louth Contemporary Music Society on a wonderful night's entertainment.
