Signs, Games and Messages are series for solo instruments and small chamber ensembles. Each of the three notions refers to an essential factor in Kurtág's music. Signs ties in with the composer's period of study in Paris as a young man, when he could not compose, merely put graphic signs on the paper. (Additionally, the word points to inspiration gained from the art of Klee and Michaux.) Games links with his nine-volume series for the piano with that title. Messages conveys the very personal content of these works, in that these short pieces are actually diary notes and missives to musicians and friends important to Kurtág. The collection - like his earlier five series for stringed instruments - does not form a coherent cycle. The pieces can be played individually or in various orders or among pieces from Signs, Games and Messages written for other instruments.

The cycle Scenes for solo flute, written in September 1997 and dedicated to Ádám Szokolay, occupies an extraordinary place in György Kurtág's oeuvre. The premiere of the long-withheld composition was held in 2016 on the composer's 90th birthday. Each movement in the cycle reformulates familiar gestures of Kurtág's music: it develops pensive, impetuous, ethereal or playful characters.

Publication of György Kurtág's string chamber music is a long-awaited event: his chamber music master courses and the recording made by the Orlando Trio have aroused considerable interest in these works worldwide. The first three volumes contain pieces for violin (Z. 14220), for viola (Z. 14221) and for string trio (Z. 14223). As our title - Signs, Games and Messages - suggests, they include compositions of varying length written for different types of occasion: musical 'letters', tributes and playful experiments in instrumental technique.

Die Herausgabe von György Kurtágs Kammermusik für Streicher stellt ein lang ersehntes Ereignis dar: Die von ihm veranstalteten Meisterkurse und die Schallplattenaufnahme desOrlando Trios lösten gegenüber diesen Werken weltweites Interesse aus. Zunächst erscheinen drei Hefte, die Stücke für Violine (Z. 14220), für Bratsche (Z. 14221) und für Streichtrio (Z. 14223). Wie auch ihr Titel - Zeichen, Spiele und Botschaften - erahnen lässt, finden sich in ihnen Kompositionen unterschiedlichen Ausmasses und zu verschiedenen Anlässen: musikalische ‚Briefe', Hommagen und instrumententechnische Spielereien.
