Dezső Ránki, who has been spoiling the Hungarian public for four decades with his world-class playing and been chosen by the Palace of Arts as their Artist of the Season, plays works by two composers particularly close to his heart. Joseph Haydn and Ferenc Liszt belongs to a different age and represents a different style. In truth, it is hard to find common ground in their music, but they are all ...
Grand Chinese New Year Concert In Budapest, 26 January

- community & culture
After last year's Chinese New Year Concert, the Béla Bartók National Concert Hall is once again sprinkled with the exciting, scintillating musical spices of Asia. What we should not expect, however, is a musically alien Chinese production that is hard for Western ears to grasp: instead, the audience will be transported on a Far Eastern adventure full of grace and melody that is far more redolent ...

A century and a half ago in Saint Petersburg, a civil servant lived a double life for many years: by day he busied himself with official documents and sombre files, but as soon as he put down his pen and sleeve protector he would give himself over to composing operas and songs, or meeting with his fellow musicians in someone's home to plan the renewal of Russian music.

The National Philharmonic continues its series of concerts of dramatic works by Richard Strauss which have never or only rarely been performed in Hungary.

The guest star of the season-opening concert traditionally held on the evening before the anniversary of Béla Bartók's death will be arriving from Paris. While his concert programmes and recordings indicate that Bartók is one of his favourite composers, on this occasion he will be playing an emblematic work from the Romantic literature.

Piotr Anderszewski, one of the most extraordinary personalities among living pianists today, has links to Hungary that go beyond mere family connections. Now in his early forties, the Polish-Hungarian musician has been a regular fixture on concert stages here since the turn of the millennium; he and the Hungarian public share a mutual affection.

The worlds of gods and men are separated by a vast chasm. This was an idea that fascinated Goethe, Wagner and Hölderlin. The latter was particularly pessimistic about man’s role: to him, fate was nothing more than ceaseless drifting, a blind struggle. Brahms encountered Hölderlin’s poem Hyperions Schicksalslied (Hyperion’s Song of Fate) in his mid thirties, immediately recognising the potential ...

It might not be obvious but Hungarian and Turkish music history and folk music have a lot in common. This concert presents two excellent Turkish musicians and introduces Turkish music to the audiences. Composed by Ahmed Adnan Saygun, the ‘Bartók of Turkey’ in 1975, Ritual Dance melts elements of Western music and Turkish authentic folk music in a unique way.
