French Evening, National Concert Hall Budapest, 25 February
- 25 Feb 2026 7:30 PM
- classical
A French evening in the spirit of refinement, colours, moods – and pathos. The De-bussy work, L’Après-midi d’un Faune, heralds the birth of impressionism and the two Saint-Saëns compositions, the Cello Concerto in A minor and the hugely popular Organ Symphony, represent romanticism – the latter of which is heavily influenced by Liszt. It is not just the composers who are French: so are the ...

Kurtág 100 Festival, Palace of Arts Budapest, 18 February
- 18 Feb 2026 1:00 PM
- classical
Silver Bear-winning filmmaker Dénes Nagy spent four years following György Kurtág’s everyday life with his camera. The resulting documentary, produced between 2021 and 2025, far exceeds the conventional boundaries of the genre.

English Marathon: Purcell – Elgar - Britten, Mupa Budapest, 15 February
- 15 Feb 2026 10:00 AM
- classical
“This royal throne of kings, this sceptered isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise…” These are the words of Shakespeare in praise of England in Richard II. Among the trappings that enrich “this earth of majesty” is the musical culture of the island nation, as evidenced by traditions that continue to be painstakingly maintained today.

Mupa Film Club: Emir Kusturica - Life Is a Miracle, Palace of Arts, 9 February
- 9 Feb 2026 6:30 PM
- contemporary
In 2024, Emir Kusturica & The No Smoking Orchestra returned to perform at Müpa Budapest. The night was one big party. Was it what we would call folk punk? Balkan rollicking?
Categories are meaningless. Kusturica is very consistent in his use of music in his films. (Sometimes the songs even become hits.) In this case, he wrote them himself.
The story takes place in the early ’90s, during ...

Ten years after their last performance, Mahler specialist Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra return to this monumental six-movement piece.
The soloist is Gerhild Romberger, ...
