Concert, music

Az idén 25 éves együttes ebben az évben - május 24-én, 19 órától - ellátogat Kispestre is. Az előadás a tavaly májusban 100 éves születésnapját ünneplő KMO-ban lesz.

Dániel Kinczel's trio takes the listener into the world of the pianist-composer's works, which were born as a love child of cool jazz and impressionist music, but also inherited some blues features.

The door to Moroccan trance music opens this May evening when one of the youngest female ambassadors of Gnawa culture, Asmâa Hamzaoui, and her own line-up, the Bnat Timbouktou trio, and the the Hungary-based band Tariqa, led by Central and Eastern European region's best-known Gnawa musician, the Moroccan-born Saïd Tichiti, give a joint concert.

Everyone is welcome to come in colourful clothes, the programme is a mere 50 minutes in length (without an interval), and the audience sits in close proximity to the organist. Performing the May programme, the fourth instalment of the series, will be Péter Mekis, a representative of the younger generation.

Több mint két évtizede, alapítóként köszönt be egy nagy hellóval - 2024-ben pedig
egy hangos goodbye-jal búcsúzik a Szent Efrémtől Bubnó Márk. Az együttes
maghatározó hangja és arca, a minden nyelven (is) hibátlanul éneklő hangfenomén,
a mellékállásban faápoló és ironman „Marcika” ezen az estén áll utoljára színpadra
Magyarország legnépszerűbb vokális együttesével.

At their Müpa Budapest concert, they will play both ballads and more up-tempo songs, a total of twenty-four of their greatest hit, like they have never been heard before: in an acoustic, chamber music arrangement accompanied by two vocalists and a piano, violin, cello and flute.

Just like it has done so many times before, the Jazz Spring festival continues to present women who exude strength as they proclaim the bright future of jazz. For Lakecia Benjamin, the dynamics, styles and moods of jazz, funk, R&B and hip-hop are all equally her own, and she combines them in the most natural ways imaginable.

Beck Zoltán – Vecsei H. Miklós: Kártyajáték

Van 32 lapunk, épp, mint egy pakli magyar kártyában. A kártyák mindegyikén egy-egy szó, félmondat: valami, ami talán az életfordulókat jelöli, vagy csak hangulatot, állatot, égitestet.

Mihály Borbély, who is equally at home in the fields of folk and world music, jazz and contemporary music, and who is extremely popular both in Hungary and abroad, is one of the leading figures of Hungarian jazz as a performer and composer.

Dee Dee Bridgewater's career is now in its sixth decade, and while she says she's put in a lot of work to find herself, there's no doubt that the jazz world sees her as an institution.

In almost every biography of the group's career, you can read that Quincy Jones has called them the "the baddest vocal cats on the planet”. This opinion would probably be shared by Ray Charles, Ella Fitzgerald and Whitney Houston, all of whom worked alongside Take 6.

Barrière, Cassadó, Debussy, Lutosławski, Ravel

Wandering Gypsies leading adventurous lives and gallant yet ridiculous nobles abusing their power are the main characters of the animated film Szaffi. This adaptation of Mór Jókai's classic novel The Gypsy Baron is by now familiar to several generations of Hungarians.

Raquel Kurpershoek Jaldón, born in 1998, became known after winning talent contests from 2016. She learned Cuban, Brazilian, and Indian music in Rotterdam and flamenco singing in Spain. She also studied sign language. In 2020, her documentary Traslasierra about flamenco and the deaf won awards internationally.

Eliades Ochoa's performance at Müpa Budapest is sure to be one of the most exciting concerts of 2024. Although the Cuban singer/guitarist has been a famous musician in his native country since the 1970s, it was only at the turn of the millennium that the wider world first encountered his name, thanks to the Wim Wenders documentary on the Buena Vista Social Club.

While listening to the orchestra’s excellent musicians performing in a cozy atmosphere, the audience will learn about the instruments of the symphony orchestra and concert etiquette in a playful and interactive manner. After the concert, the kids can have a mug of cocoa in the lobby.

Not only is the Staatskapelle Dresden one of the oldest orchestras in the world, it is also among the very best, helmed in recent decades by such conductors as Giuseppe Sinopoli, Bernard Haitink, Fabio Luisi and Christian Thielemann.

Imre Kőszegi's timing remains impeccable. In December, he will turn 80. And, of course, his bandmates can always count on his flawless rhythm. The second president of the Hungarian Jazz Federation is an irrepressibly energetic musician.

2024. június 22-ére Pásztor Annáék nagyobbat álmodtak a Margitszigeti Szabadtéri Színpadra, mint eddig valaha!

Az elmúlt 20 évük eklektikusan dús zenei és lelki kalandozásait, Shakespeare Szentivánéji álom erdejébe varázsolják

The world-famous Danish baritone Bo Skovhus probably secured his place in the hearts of the Müpa Budapest audience forever when, in a 2013 production of Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, he was forced to take the stage while suffering from a painful knee problem, yet still managed to incorporate his resulting compromised ability to walk into his unforgettable portrayal.

A rarely performed suite, a classical concerto, a tribute to Bach, and the cornerstone of a symphonic oeuvre: evoking a Nordic air while occasionally stirring flames of passion, is what the concerto offers. The orchestra performs under the baton of BFO’s regular guest conductor, music director of the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin and the Glyndebourne Festival Opera, Robin Ticciati.
