Let’s imagine the opera house is just a few steps from the church, because tonight is the night the organ pipes will bring the most thrilling moments of opera to life.

Miután a kétezres években meghódította az R’n’B világát – amit 14 Grammy-jelölés és egy Billboard Top 10-listás album is jelzett –, Ledisi mára a jazz egén is tündöklő csillaggá vált.

The dice and the stopwatch will be coming out again at the Béla Bartók National Concert Hall as it hosts another round of musical ‘battle’. When we talk about instrumental duels in the Hungarian capital these days, it is no longer necessarily Bach and Marchand, or even Liszt and Thalberg, that we are thinking of, because we have our own riveting concert series right here at Müpa Budapest.

Works by Bach, Vivaldi, Daquin, Mozart, Vierne and Antalffy-Zsiross

Sergei Rachmaninoff: Piano Concerto No. 1 in F-sharp minor, Op. 1 Richard Strauss: Ein Heldenleben (A Hero’s Life), Op. 40

The organ, this instrument that is at once acoustic and mechanical in character, can evoke in us, through its sound alone or even merely on account of its sheer visual presence, a sense of vastness spanning immense distances. For this concert, however, the organ is joined by a saxophone and live electronics to blend elements of classical and contemporary music with jazz to produce an unclassifiable, improvisatory performance that makes this expansive horizon even more breathtaking than usual.

Das Rheingold is the introduction to the storyline, depicting the central conflict. Starting from a primeval state of peace, the opera shows how the original sin was committed, triggering a chain of events that eventually lead to complete annihilation.

One thing we know for certain about the 21st century is that it will be when the survivors of the Holocaust take their last breath. Every single one of them. Slowly but surely, they are leaving us to our own devices. “Do we want to forget what happened, as if it were a bad dream, or do we want to accept the events as human civilization’s greatest trauma?” the author Péter Esterházy once asked.

It is not exclusively Hungarians that Müpa Budapest honours with the prestigious title of Artist of the Season: foreign musicians, such as the Russian piano virtuoso Denis Matsuev, for instance, have also been distinguished in this way. The prerequisites are obvious: a high level of professional excellence and a fruitful relationship with Müpa Budapest.

What's wrong with Steve Vai or Joe Satriani playing Beethoven or Paganini on an electric guitar? (Or Itzhak Perlman playing a musical?) It’s just artistic crossover, right? Or might it be something else?

Approx until: 7.30 pm

It has been a long time since we thought of Cécile McLorin Salvant as merely the promising winner of the 2010 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Competition. Her expressive voice capable of conveying profound emotions and refined sentiments, her virtuoso improvisation, and her brave, experimental combinations of styles have now come to represent a point of reference to a new generation.

Először koncertezik Magyarországon az elmúlt húsz év egyik legsikeresebb brit énekesnője, Corinne Bailey Rae, aki már 2006-os debütáló albumával és annak világslágereivel (Like A Star, Put Your Records On) milliós eladásokat produkáló nemzetközi sztár lett.

Richard Strauss: Don Juan, Op. 20 Samuel Barber: Violin Concerto, Op. 14 Dmitri Shostakovich: Symphony No. 5 in D minor, Op. 47

Sokféleképpen lehet tisztelegni a száz éve született Miles Davis emléke előtt, de kevesen mondhatják el magukról, hogy testközelből élték át a Miles-varázst, és a játszótársaként kaptak tőle örök érvényű útravalót.
