Under the Magnifying Glass Series, House of Music Budapest, 24 May
- 24 May 2026 3:49 PM
- classical
The Under the Magnifying Glass series is aimed at those who like to dig into the depths of works: the usual one-and-a-half-hour interactive lectures examine in detail a lesser-known, great piece from numerous aspects, while the accessible analysis is completed by the collaboration of a young, professional vocal ensemble, the Capella Columbae.
One of Schubert's last large-scale works is a ...
Budapest Festival Orchestra: Mahler, National Concert Hall, 18 May
- 18 May 2026 7:45 PM
- classical
At this concert, the BFO will take us on a musical journey along the Rhine, both to its banks – in the form of Schumann’s symphony inspired by some pleasant experiences there – and its depths, with a scene from Wagner.
The former commemorates a peaceful riverside excursion to the Rhine, and the latter is one of the most famous excerpts from the monumental opera tetralogy The Ring of the ...
St Matthew Passion, Opera House Budapest, 2 April
- 2 Apr 2026 7:00 PM
- classical
Saint Matthew Passion is Bach's greatest work, one which constitutes an unsurpassable pinnacle not only of Protestant church music, but in the universal history of music.
Forgotten after Bach's death, the work was played in Berlin on 11 March 1829, a century after its original performance, with Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy conducting.
The composer and conductor adapted the work to Romantic ...

The Modern Art Orchestra’s three-part concert series pays tribute to this year’s centenary of a jazz icon through the legendary collaboration of Miles Davis and Gil Evans.

Beyond Fukuyama, Trafó Budapest, 31 March
- 31 Mar 2026 8:00 PM
- contemporary
In his 1989 essay The End of History, Francis Fukuyama argues that liberal democracy represents the final destination of political and social evolution. Have we truly arrived at the best of all possible worlds, or have power structures simply been rearranged around us?

State Folk Ensemble: Hungarian Rhapsody, Hungarian Heritage House, 15 March
- 15 Mar 2026 7:00 PM

Rhapsody as a genre is characterized by caprice and the passionate undulation of emotion, thoughts, and the freedom of expression. Hungarian Rhapsody incorporates all of the peculiarities of the genre, relying on tradition, and drawing inspiration from it, to create a special and unique dance rhapsody.
The colourful diversity of the Hungarian peasant traditions appear in dynamically ...

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.
