Artistic director: Pierluigi Ruggiero

Modern Musici Aquincum was founded recently, on the initiative of Pierluigi Ruggiero, an Italian cellist and producer, who studied at the Liszt Academy with a scholarship. Comprising Italian and Hungarian musicians, the ensemble maintains a repertoire that promotes contemporary music, and they closely cooperate with some of today’s leading composers, as well as promising talents of the youngest generation.

Their concert at CAFe Budapest features Hungarian musicians who are key to the local contemporary music scene, as well as singers and instrumentalists who studied at Italy’s leading academies: together, they will also introduce the Hungarian audience to composers who have already earned distinction in Italian musical life.
