Viola Concerto
for viola and symphony orchestra
“Violist Máté Szűcs was the perfect soloist for the premiere of Kecskés’ Viola Concerto. His viola’s tone is one of the most beautiful I’ve heard, and his sensitive execution of the fascinating score was expert.”

Partita
version for two pianos
“This is a very programmable work for both solo pianists and duo-pianists interested in new and exciting repertoire.”
(Papageno.hu)
