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.
The poetic imagery brings to life memories of childhood in the 1930s, the dilemmas of loneliness in old age, fundamental questions of creativity and teaching, as well ...
Budapest Festival Orchestra: Mahler, National Concert Hall, 2 February

The soloist is Gerhild Romberger, ...

On this occasion she will headline one of the immortal masterpieces ...
