The Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and Choir will furnish us with a long-overdue performance of The Dream of Gerontius, a major work from the English late-Romantic composer Edward Elgar - though rarely played in Hungary, it is one of the most important compositions of the early 20th century.
It is no coincidence that the composition will be performed on All Saints' Day, as the piece is an ...

Iván Fischer and the Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Palace of Arts Budapest, 20 September
- 19 Sep 2021 7:30 PM
- classical
Audience will have a special evening to look forward to. There is no need to introduce the 70-year-old Iván Fischer to the Budapest audience.
Nevertheless, this concert will be an introduction in a certain sense, since it has always been at the helm of the Budapest Festival Orchestra that we've seen him perform ever since the ensemble made its debut on Christmas Day in 1983.
At this event ...
László Dés Concert, Palace of Arts Budapest, 5 September
- 5 Sep 2021 4:00 PM

What Hungarian isn't familiar with the big Dés hits: Nagy utazás, Vigyázz rám, Olyan szépek voltunk, A zene az kell, Legyen úgy!, Mi vagyunk a grund! - we could go on.
This concert will feature a selection of well-known songs from László ...
Mozart: Don Giovanni, Palace of Arts Budapest, 4 September
- 4 Sep 2021 7:30 PM
- classical
Mozart's most mysterious work has been both enchanting and puzzling audiences for more than 200 years.

Rudolf Buchbinder & Orchestra del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, Palace of Arts Budapest, 15 August
- 15 Aug 2021 7:30 PM
- classical
A blissful symphony brimming with a love of nature that presages the style of Romantic expression and a piano concerto, tragic in mood, that consummates it. Beethoven and Brahms.
That is, Brahms and Beethoven, because at this concert we will progress from the result to the antecedent. The soloist is one of the leading pianists of our time, and one who has so far escaped visiting us, yet ...
