Like thousands of his colleagues, he admires and reveres such blues greats as Blind Willie McTell, Skip James, Robert Johnson or John Lee Hooker.
On the other hand, and quite unlike most of his ...
'On Tiptoe' - About Music and Dance, National Dance Theatre Budapest, 11 December
- 11 Dec 2022 7:30 PM
- classical
Dance and music: they are inseparable at first sight (and hearing). Still, the relationship between choreographers and composers has been quite stormy and fluctuating over the past centuries.

Opera in three parts, in English, with Hungarian surtitles
British music is often faulted for having failed to produce a significant composer for three hundred years after Purcell.
If ever a later composer felt it incumbent on himself to look back into England’s past and write a piece based on the work of its most world-famous artistic genius, Shakespeare, it was Benjamin Britten, the ...
Sound Dome, House of Hungarian Music Budapest, 3 February
- 3 Feb 2022 12:00 PM
- contemporary
What is a sound dome? This question can be answered quite literally: a dome-cupola, which emits sounds. But it is more than just that.
Our sound dome is also a projection screen with a sound system behind it. Anyone sitting in the middle will hear sounds coming from all directions.
The world of sounds is evoked here starting with those of nature to composed music but the experience ...

Concert+Dance House with Ritka Band, Fonó Budapest, 30 July

For quite a while we have been interested in the history of folk music collection work done in the Transylvanian village of Magyarózd/ Ozd.
The material for this concert came together after a long search.
We separated out and studied melodies from the huge amount of digitalized material in the Institute of Musicology. We also studied Horváth István’s book “Magyarozdi toronyalja”, Pávai ...

This evening's programme will ...
