Tamás Érdi Piano Recital, Liszt Academy, 15 March
- 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.

The second half of the Hungarian National ...

Chamber Music, 'Tuned For Grand Hall', Liszt Academy, 5 March
- 5 Mar 2021 7:30 PM
- classical
The marvellous thing about chamber music is that one never knows what will be created on stage, even in the case of such well-known repertoire pieces as the cello-piano sonatas of Brahms and Richard Strauss.
The interaction of these two internationally renowned musicians promises a never-to-be-repeated, ‘here and now’ experience. Both are dedicated to chamber music and sensitive to all its ...
Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra, Liszt Academy, 4 March
- 4 Mar 2021 7:30 PM
- classical
Originally, Tchaikovsky intended to dedicate his work (1874–75) to Nikolai Rubinstein, but his pianist-composer-conductor friend was scathing in his criticism of the piece, thus the dedication is actually to the student and first husband of the daughter (Cosima) of Ferenc Liszt, Hans von Bülow, who debuted the work in Boston in 1875.
The piano concerto took what the composer considered its ...
