After marathons centred on Tchaikovsky, Dvořák, Beethoven, Schubert, Mozart, Bartók, Bach, Stravinsky, Mendelssohn and Schumann, Brahms, Bernstein and the music of America, Debussy and Ravel, and then Beethoven again, and with the Liszt and Berlioz marathon held online owing to the coronavirus, this season the spotlight will focus on Richard Strauss. The German composer's long and remarkable career spanned from the second half of the 19th century to the middle of the 20th, and he impacted the development of modern music, including the early efforts of Béla Bartók, with both his operas and symphonic poems. The list of performers will once again consist of outstanding soloists, chamber ensembles and orchestras from the Hungarian music scene. In addition, students from the Liszt Academy are looking forward to welcoming visitors to their free concerts in the Glass Hall, while memorable performances will be shown on the screen in the Auditorium.

The artistic director of the series is Iván Fischer.

Conductor: Csaba Somos

Featuring:
violin: Antal Zalai
piano: Mária Kovalszki
Hungarian National Choir

Presented by: Budapest Festival Orchestra, Müpa Budapest

“One is only an instrument played by the universe. A symphony must be like the world. It must embrace everything”, said Mahler, and this closeness to nature seems most manifest in his Symphony No. 3. The last time that the longest symphony in the history of music was performed by Mahler specialist Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra was ten years ago.
