The "Games" cycle, created for piano from 1973 onwards, was originally conceived as a piano school, in the first volumes of which Kurtág introduced children to the basic elements of piano playing and musical thinking, and, perhaps even more importantly, of informal music-making. Over the past decades, however, the cycle lost its didactic character and became more of a document about Kurtág's composer's workshop, which also gives us a key to his large-format symphonic, chamber and vocal works. This change is indicated by the fact that from the fifth issue onwards the “Games” cycle has the subtitle “Diary notes, personal messages”.

The often aphoristically short sentences contain rich associations relating to numerous phenomena in European music history, and for the most part they are homage or in memoriam sentences or personal, very subjective messages to friends, colleagues, loved ones and students - and about them to all music-loving people.
