Hungarian Classical Music Day, Liszt Academy, 30 May
- 30 May 2021 7:35 PM
- classical
Being proud of the richness of Hungarian classical music, its old and new values, its great and its minor masters, its diversity and its inimitable traits, is anything other than some kind of narrow-minded nationalism.
In fact, quite the opposite because our music, the works of our 19th, 20th and 21st century composers, are to be found in the universal medium of European culture and classical ...
István Várdai & Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra, Palace Of Arts, 10 May
- 10 May 2021 7:30 PM
- classical
The modern accepted principles for structuring concert programmes were developed in the second half of the 20th century.

- 15 Mar 2021 7:30 PM
- classical
Pianist Tamás Érdi lost his eyesight as a result of an oxygen overdose in a defective incubator. His interest in music was discovered at a very young age. His teachers use a unique method called “the structural method” to teach Tamás play the piano, whereby he virtually “recomposes” the music he is introduced to.
At 15, he plays a Mozart piano concerto at the prestigious Budapest Spring ...
Requiem, Palace Of Arts Budapest, 12 March
- 12 Mar 2021 7:30 PM
- classical
Although in the last 30 years it was quite unusual for a symphony orchestra to start a concert with works by Bach, 20 years earlier this would not have been surprising at all. With the spread of the historically informed performance movement, modern orchestras 'withdrew' from the Baroque repertoire. Today, however, they are reclaiming this area.
The second half of the Hungarian National ...
