The present collection contains the composer's Bach transcriptions for piano four hands written since the publication of his volume of 'Transcriptions from Machaut to J. S. Bach'. These were originally composed for the Kurtágs, György and his wife Márta, for their own use, and they were often played, together with the 'Játékok' [Games] pieces, at the couple's piano four hands concerts. Die vorliegende Sammlung ist der Anhang zum Band 'Übertragungen von Machaut bis J. S. Bach' von György Kurtág. Diese Stücke entstanden ursprünglich zum eigenen Gebrauch des Ehepaars Kurtág, Márta und György, und erklangen häufig neben den Stücken aus 'Játékok' [Spiele] im Rahmen der vierhändigen Klavier- und Pianinokonzerte des Ehepaars.
