The soloists of the double clarinet concerto of Péter Eötvös draw acrobatic, levitating curves with parallels and connecting phrases to create an energized and witty musical theatre.
The program features two world premieres. Péter Tornyai’s string orchestra piece plays with the space of the concert hall. Ajtony Csaba’s Ballade for ensemble and solo voice uses a text of Hungarian contemporary ...

This concert represents an opportunity to discover two young soloists, a pianist and a flautist, and also offers a unique chance to see the Savaria Symphony Orchestra, a Hungarian symphonic ensemble from outside Budapest.

He had not been able to compose for three years. Then, at a time when he was hospitalized, he was ...
