Chamber recital by Gyöngyi Ujházi and Gábor Monostori 2/2
18:00Ujházi Gyöngyi (gordonka) és Monostori Gábor (zongora) koncertjének műsora olyan zeneszerzők köré épül fel, akik házastársukkal a magánéletükön kívül szakmájukban is, zenészként is egymás szövetségesei, inspirálói voltak. J. S. Bach és Robert Schumann művei mellett napjaink zenéjét Balogh Máté darabjai képviselik, melyeket a szerző gordonkaművész feleségének dedikált.Details -

MAO Legendary Albums | Herbie Hancock: V.S.O.P. Live Under the Sky
20:00If, at all, Herbie Hancock has ever made a wrong decision, then it was to give the name V.S.O.P. to one of the fieriest bands he ever had, as this is supposed to be the label for a cognac which paled for at least four years. Miles Davis, on the other hand, could have regretted in hindsight, that he did not honour the invitation of Hancock to play as a guest at the 1976 Newport Jazz Fest. Freddie Hubbard took the trumpet part to join a group of Davis alumni: Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter and Tony Williams. They played straight-ahead, so to say, but with a vigour that only jazz-rock musicians can display, nothing of paleness there, full power instead. They recorded this album three years later in Japan at an open-air festival, and they are on fire all the way through, displaying huge dynamism and vast perspectives, all five of them breathing as one. They only played originals until the encore, showing compositional bravado, exciting harmonic changes, and intriguing dialogues. They take us along the full scale of emotions from Eyes of the Hurricane to Fragile.Details -

Miklós Lukács: Timeless – BMC Records album release (HU)
20:00After his contemporary and jazz projects of recent years, Miklós Lukács, the ambassador of the cimbalom in Hungary and worldwide, has returned to pure beauty on his new solo album Timeless, arranging well-known songs by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, Sting, Ennio Morricone, Leonard Bernstein, Keith Jarrett, Harold Arlen, and Rezső Seress. The musical history of the past creeps again and again into his arrangements as a sweet spice, be it in the garb of classical music, jazz, or traditional musical cultures. Nevertheless, he focuses primarily on the present and not on musical precursors, so the singable melodies engage the listener's emotional memory and at the same time give us the pleasure of a first hearing. The arrangements are complemented by an original composition, Aura – Hommage à Péter Eötvös, in which Miklós Lukács creates a new quality by fusing accessible melodicism and experience in contemporary music. He performs the songs on Timeless live for the very first time. Miklós Lukács has brought the cimbalom as a solo instrument to the forefront of contemporary music and jazz both at home and abroad, and has developed a number of techniques beyond the traditional playing style to achieve unique sounds. Composers like Peter Eötvös and Béla Szakcsi Lakatos have written pieces for him, and he has played with musicians and orchestras such as Archie Shepp, Bill Frisell, Chris Potter, Uri Caine, Frank London, and the BBC Symphony Orchestra. After his achievements in contemporary music and jazz, it was time to turn his attention to the popular side of the repertoire, where he is once again a pioneer: no other album has been released ever to showcase the diversity and potential of the solo cimbalom by performing well-known songs.Details -

3 x j(A)zz! | Paier – Valcic – Preinfalk: Fractal Beauty (AT/HR)
20:00Austrian musicians Klaus Paier and Gerald Preinfalk as well as Croatian Asja Valcic have formed a fascinating trio as their new creative grounds. Paier has been exploring the nuances of accordion and bandoneon playing, and traveling between jazz, world music and classical elements for decades. His curiosity and thirst for exploring sounds led him to design his own instrument, named “Passion”. Croatian cellist Asja Valcic found a way from classical music to improvisation. She played in chamber ensembles and co-founded the multistylistic radio.string.quartet.vienna. In jazz, she worked in a trio with Joachim Kühn and Prabhu Edouard, as well as in the quartet Fulsome X with Wolfgang Puschnig. Gerald Preinfalk presents contemporary music with the renowned Klangforum Wien and has also performed with the Wiener Philharmoniker. He played jazz in bands with George Garzone, Don Byron, Alegre Corrêa, Django Bates, Christian Muthspiel, Wolfgang Muthspiel, and in big bands such as the Vienna Art Orchestra. All three musicians contribute own compositions to the trio’s repertoire, further developing their creative journey between jazz, contemporary, classical and world music together. Within the written forms, there is ample room for fine tuned improvisation and solo highlights, appealing to the demanding music listener. In terms of its dynamics, virtuosity and fragility, the kaleidoscope of audiophonics devised on their new album Fractal Beauty is a bold blueprint on the path to perfection in sound that offers a balance of freedom and form, complex music and compelling melodies, suspense and release, and above all the purest of poetry.Details -

The early history of electronic music in the Cologne WDR Studio - Part I
18:00 Faragó Béla előadásaFaragó Béla előadásaKellene valaki, aki uralkodik a hangok rendszerén, aki eléggé geniális lenne hozzá,hogy a rekonstruálót, sőt az archaikusat egyesíti a forradalmival.Thomas Mann: Doktor FaustusA Kölni Rádió (WDR) Elektronikus zenei stúdióját 1951. október 18-án alapította Herbert Eimert zeneszerző, Dr. Werner Meyer-Eppler fizikus és Robert Beyer hangmérnők. A közfelfogás a kölni iskolát rigid, formaelvű, szintetikus hangzású kompozíciókkal azonosítja. A Stúdióban készülő korai művek elsősorban Meyer-Eppler Hangzó katalógusának hangmintáit hívják segítségül az új ZENE esztétikájának megteremtéséhez, mindeközben létrejön az elektronikus zenei szolfézs. 1953-ban csatlakozik a Stúdióhoz Karlheinz Stockhausen, aki Olivier Messiaen és Karol Goeyvaerts szerialista (sorozatelvű) szellemi impulzusainak hatására egy radikálisan új, magasan szervezett zenei nyelvet teremt: a szó szoros értelmében mindent az atomok (= a tiszta szinuszhang) szintjéről felépítve. A háromrészes előadás-sorozat a Kölni WDR Stúdió archívumának közelmúltban napvilágra került hangfelvételeiről készített zenei hangzásképek, azaz szonogramok segítségével ismerteti Faragó Béla készülő doktori disszertációjának kutatási eredményeit. Az első részben Herbert Eimert, Robert Beyer zeneszerzők és Heinz Schütz hangmérnök elektronikus kompozíciói mellett élőben megszólal Faragó Béla Quintetto per fiati című műve - a kompozíció megírását a Nemzeti Kulturális Alap támogatta.Details -

3 x j(A)zz! | Jelena Popržan Quartett (RS/AT)
20:00Jelena Popržan, the charismatic and vocally nuanced viola player, singer and sound artist from Vojvodina (Serbia), who has injected some vitality into the Austrian music scene, is now setting up a new project and a new team after her highly acclaimed solo program La Folia, with three fixed sizes of the local jazz scene: Christoph Pepe Auer (in this concert substituted by Richie Winkler), Clemens Sainitzer and Lina Neuner. She found the poems of the Polish-Viennese poet Tamar Radzyner (1927–1991) in a booklet published by the Theodor Kramer Society and was deeply impressed. The Polish Jew, who was in the armed resistance and survived the Shoah, found a new home in Vienna and in the German language, worked with Georg Kreisler and Topsy Küppers, and wrote poems full of cheerful pessimism and bitter wit. Jelena Popržan created a musical monument to her with a song cycle. But the larger part of the program is taken up by her brand new instrumental compositions, pieces full of imaginative sound images and melodic stories.Details -

Pax et Bonum - Choir Works by Máté Balogh
18:00A Pax et Bonum Kamarakórus Balogh Máté, Erkel-díjas és Junior Príma-díjas zeneszerző sokszínű kórusműveiből nyújt válogatást. A koncert különleges műfaji kalandozásokat kínál: szavalókórus, bordal, poszt-spirituálé és zulu népdal is elhangzik, melyek mind Balogh szellemes témaválasztásait és újszerű kóruskezelését tükrözik. A művekben Balogh Máté Misztótfalusi Kis Miklós, Gabrielle von Baumberg, Edward Lear, James Joyce és Fehér Renátó szövegeit dolgozta fel. A szerzővel rendszeres alkotótársa, Fehér Renátó költő beszélget az elhangzó művekről.Details -

3 x j(A)zz! | Sketchbook Quartet (AT/IT)
20:00Leonhard Skorupa somehow manages to leave his mark on every band he’s a part of. The Vienna saxophonist and clarinetist has a penchant for surprise and wry humor; he’s anything but a wet blanket. His Sketchbook Quartet is marked by a lively, contemporary sound – rooted in the jazz tradition, to be sure, but the band has no problem integrating influences from musical styles ranging from straight-ahead jazz to surf rock. The music of this refreshingly unconventional quartet could almost pass for chamber jazz – if it weren’t for the strong syncopated rhythms and the undertone of uninhibited rock-and-roll. In any case, the Sketchbook Quartet is partially responsible for the growing self-confidence of the Austrian jazz scene in recent years, as well as for its international mobility and popularity. The band can be counted on to deliver a fresh, vibrating sound, celebrating a quintessentially modern, joyful, prickly eclecticism.Details -

O Lieb | Song Recital with Gabriella Rea Fenyvesi and Róza Radnóti
19:00In 2024, soprano Gabriella Rea Fenyvesi and pianist Róza Radnóti received the Annie Fischer Scholarship, a Hungarian prize supporting young talents. The two musicians got to know each other thanks to this award, and their shared passion for the masterpieces of song literature led them to create a song recital. Both young artists studied with distinguished professors at the Academy of Music - Gabriella with Andrea Meláth, András Almási-Tóth and Szabolcs Sándor, Róza with Gábor Csalog, András Kemenes and Rita Wagner. Both obtained their MA degree with honours from the institution in 2022, and went on to broaden their studies abroad: Gabriella spent six months as a Weingarten scholarship student at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire with British soprano Anne Dawson, and Róza studied with Imre Rohmann at the Mozarteum in Salzburg for two years. Their song recital features works by 19th and 20th century composers, almost all of which tell the story of love, and sings about its depths and heights.Details -

St.EFREM: A Genius is Born II. | Zoltán Kodály and his Musical Heritage
19:00Among the pillars of StEFREM's broad repertoire are works for male choir by Hungarian composers, primarily Liszt, Bartók and Kodály, as well as compositions dedicated to the ensemble by contemporary Hungarian masters. They have released several albums of these works on BMC Records. The series A Genius Is Born is a tribute to the male choir works by the three greatest Hungarian masters of music, so it is no coincidence that the concerts are taking place on the composers' birthdays. A special feature of the concert programme is that StEFREM's personal selection of works by the classical composers is complemented by outstanding and interesting pieces by their "heirs", the Hungarian composers of the 20th and 21st centuries. StEFREM is a Budapest-based vocal ensemble with a unique sound. The multi award-winning ensemble regularly performs throughout Europe, from London to Bucharest, and has also performed in Africa, India and South America. They have worked with renowned artists such as Abeer Nehme, Victor Solomon, and the King's Singers, and have released 18 albums since 2002. Their rich and varied repertoire includes Byzantine and classical pieces, crossover arrangements and acapella pop songs. 142 years ago on this day Zoltán Kodály was born, whose musical vision and work had a profound influence on the Hungarian musical world of the 20th century. His educational credo, known today as the Kodály Method, still helps achieve great results in the education of children around the world. Although he considered mixed choir singing to be the pinnacle of choral music, Kodály also composed many excellent works for men's choir. Today, the StEfrem performs some of these works, which are well suited to the sound of a small chamber ensemble. Great poems, quotations, sacred and folk texts from Kodály and Hungarian composers who proudly embrace his legacy will be brought to life. Further concerts in this series: 22 October 2024 19:00 St.EFREM: A Genius is Born I. | Franz Liszt and his Musical Heritage25 March 2025 19:00 St.EFREM: A Genius is Born III. | Béla Bartók and his Musical HeritageDetails -

Tether Trio | Theo Bleckmann, Timo Vollbrecht, Harmen Fraanje (DE/NL)
20:00Tether Trio is the new, genre-exploding project co-led by Grammy-nominated vocalist Theo Bleckmann and internationally renowned saxophonist Timo Vollbrecht (both from New York). Together with Amsterdam-based pianist Harmen Fraanje, they weave together explorative improvisation and melody-driven songs, allowing their music time to breathe, unfold, and claim its required space. The trio creates their highly personal sound by blending the instruments’ natural and acoustic timbres with the discreet and tasteful use of electronic live processing. After a joint performance for the Fajr International Music Festival in Iran in 2021, Bleckmann and Vollbrecht decided to further develop their immediate synergy and work out new music together. The resultant Tether Trio derives its name from the intertwining of musical ideas that these three free-thinking musicians merge into one.Details -

IX. Adyton Christmas – The Old Ones: Homage to György Szabados (HU)
20:00György Szabados organised Christmas concerts in Budapest in the 1980s and early 1990s. After his death in 2015, the Adyton Art Foundation, which aims to keep his legacy alive, took over to organise events continuing his original initiative under the title Adyton Christmas. Szabados' musical world is complex and multifaceted, opening many paths leading in different directions and offering many points of connection. Among his former musical partners, István Grencsó and Szilárd Mezei have built their own musical worlds based mainly on the technique and spirit of free music. Today, both of them have moved quite far away from traditional jazz, and their music could be labelled as improvised contemporary music beyond free jazz. Róbert Benkő is Grencsó's oldest collaborator, who has joined him in a constant search for new paths and changes of direction, and with whom they have an intuitive understanding of each other. Barnabás Dukay, the hiding icon of contemporary music, comes from a completely different direction. A composer, musicologist and Bach scholar, Dukay believes that in music, you have to improvise everything you can. This could be the motto of his ten-year-old collaboration with Grencsó, during which they have made wonderful recordings very difficult to classify. Three composers and an inspired bassist on the stage. The absence of percussion is no coincidence, as their music is not organized around rhythmic bases. Composing in real time is one of the most risky art forms, with no anchors, no safety net (say, sheet music). It depends on nuances whether it's free-flying or free-falling. They've never ever failed yet, presenting the miracle of creation in deep harmony. Zsolt NémethDetails -

Christmas Chamber Concert | Mozart, Weber
18:00Mozart's Clarinet Quintet is one of the earliest pieces written for a similar ensemble. Although the emotional complexity and contrast characteristic of his music is not absent here, it would be hard to guess that Mozart wrote this work in one of the most difficult years of his life. The Clarinet Quintet combines the three genres at which its composer excelled – opera, concerto and string quartet –, and was inspired by none other than the clarinet star of his day, Anton Stadler. At the premiere, the composer himself probably took up the viola to play alongside his friend. Weber's Clarinet Quintet follows up with Mozart's surely exemplary work not only by combining the soul of the concerto with operatic influences, but also by the fact that it was inspired by an exceptional performer, Heinrich Baermann. Apart from Weber's two most famous operas, his clarinet concertos are the only ones to appear in the repertoire, which is a pity: this chamber work is proof of the high quality of his other works.Details -

Gábor Gadó – Veronika Harcsa Quintet: The Language of Flowers – BMC Records album premiere (HU/BE)
20:00Gábor Gadó and Veronika Harcsa are two artists who are known primarily as jazz musicians, yet their work is increasingly shifting towards classical and contemporary music. Another step in this direction was their previous album Shekhinah in 2023, and this year the dialogue between classical and jazz musicians continues in the songs of The Language of Flowers. But while Shekhinah features Gadó's recent compositions with lyrics by Veronika Harcsa, The Language of Flowers brings to life Gadó's compositions from more than two decades ago to lyrics by Eszter Molnár, and revives the brightest era of Hungarian vocal jazz, hallmarked by the name of Gábor Winand. Between 2002 and 2006, Gadó and Winand released four albums (Corners of My Mind, Agent Spirituel, Different Garden, and Opera Budapest), which have taken their careers to new heights. The Gadó – Harcsa Quintet has selected 11 songs from these albums, but their aim is not to replicate, but to approach these pieces as one would the repertoire of jazz standards or classical songs: as melodies and lyrics that anyone can perform, finding their own voice in them. Gábor Gadó has been working with BMC Records for a quarter of a century, releasing an incredible number of 25 albums for BMC Records. He couldn't have found a more suitable vocalist partner for reinterpreting the vocal jazz tradition than Veronika Harcsa, who is justly the most popular Hungarian jazz singer in the country and the most recognized one abroad. In the Gadó – Harcsa Quintet, we find musicians familiar from Shekhinah and Gadó’s other projects: sound magician saxophonist János Ávéd, and the contemporary scene’s prominent cellist Tamás Zétényi add defining colours to the character of the music.Details -

András Párniczky Quartet (HU)
20:00European jazz is slowly moving away from the American mainstream style, retaining all its important values, yet creating an independent improvisational musical language. The Párniczky Quartet was created in 2016 with the aim to play the reworkings of the bandleader from Béla Bartók’s pieces. The fruit of the joint work and Párniczky’s doctoral dissertation (“Only from a pure source.” Living Béla Bartók's music in jazz – LFZE Doctoral School) is their first album, Bartók electrified, which was released on BMC Records in 2018. The immediate predecessor of Párniczky Quartet was the band Nigun, where three of the current quartet members played modern jazz based on Central and Eastern European folk music traditions. The second album of the quartet is Mikrotheosz. Their current repertoire equally includes elements of chamber jazz, contemporary classical and folk music. The compositions are performed by the members by giving them enormous creative freedom with great energy, yet articulately.Details -

Cancelled | Modern Art Orchestra plays Sacred Music
19:00Duke Ellington was the one whose eponymous composition made Sacred Music an acceptable term in jazz, to signifiy an inspired and elevated state of mind, one which was reached by many jazz musicians to go beyond the world of regular music played in the church. Although one of the early albums of the Modern Art Orchestra is a Christmas album, but this time they have shifted more towards expressing those deep and inner feelings that do not really resemble the seasonal repertoire, rather the experience of the transcendent in a more personal way. This was the artistic position leading to the adaptation of the oratorical piece by Franz Liszt, Via Crucis, but they will also interpret classic parts of Messiah by Händel, and Bach will also be adapted for the big band.Details -

Dresch Quartet (HU)
20:00The Dresch Quartet has been playing in its current lineup for four years, and its founder, the highly acclaimed Mihály Dresch, has been a key figure in etnojazz and in Hungarian music in general since the 1980s. His quartet consistently and confidently treads its own unique path with an individual fusion of Hungarian folk music and African-American jazz, jointly developed by Dresch and the band members. Commitment to the musical concept, respect and humility towards the sources, outstanding musicians, new and evergreen compositions, standards in the Dresch manner – all these combined create the musical experience that strikes the audience again and again with its freshness.Details -

Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) II. | Takemitsu, Schubert, Shostakovich
19:00After four concerts in 2023, János Mátyás Stark, Gergely Devich, and Fülöp Ránki are announcing a new series at the BMC, now under the name of Trio Haris. Their second concert will be dedicated to Shostakovich and Takemitsu, also featuring a piece by Schubert. The two piano trios by Shostakovich range from unravelling to resignation. He wrote his Trio No 1 in C minor when he was sixteen and dedicated it to his girlfriend. Its single movement is bold and mature, although still closely linked to Romanticism. It is preceded by Toru Takemitsu's late trio Between Tides. The piece's contemplative, almost meditative character and subtle sonorities contrast sharply with the rest of the programme's rather narrative pieces. The second half opens with Schubert's Notturno, whose intimate tone is punctuated by solemn episodes. The Trio No 2 in E minor, completed in 1944, was dedicated by Shostakovich to the memory of his friend Ivan Shollertinsky, who died young. The scherzo, with its bursting energy, is surrounded by three sombre movements in a serious tone, creating an unforgettable atmosphere. The tragic return of the first movement's theme before the finale's end seems to be a reference to Tchaikovsky's Trio in A minor, also in memory of a lost friend. Further concerts in this series: 5 October 2024 7 PM Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) I. | Haydn, Liszt, Schubert22 March 2025 7 PM Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) III. | Haydn and Beethoven7 June 2025 7 PM Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) IV. | Schumann and BrahmsDetails -

Áron Tálas Trio (HU)
20:00Áron Tálas, who is, even by European standards, an outstanding pianist in the generation of young Hungarian musicians, is a rare exception: though he writes and playes music deeply embedded in tradition, the quality of his music admitted him into the catalogue of BMC Records, which comprises mainly modern productions. In Tálas’s second trio album, tracks with groove, melodies, and full of emotion represent the cream of the world of traditional jazz piano trios. The title New Questions, Old Answers indicates that once again, Tálas is reluctant to break with his predecessors. Brian Blade, Roy Hargrove, Joshua Redman, Brad Mehldau, the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Erik Satie, melodies from the Carpathian Basin – this list is merely the surface of the bottomless well from which Tálas draws his inspiration. But what we hear on this album is not the sound of the artists mentioned; it is Áron Tálas, his inimitable cheerfulness, his cheeky humour and optimism, which shines through even melancholy. Indeed, we are even “ear witnesses” to the sympathetic vibes between three good friends, all musicians of high quality.Details -

After several sold-out concerts, this evening marks the debut of their album Arrival, which the audience can hear live in its entirety for the first and last time. Daveform Quintet is a modern jazz group that combines American, Scandinavian and Balkan musical elements in a unique way, with plenty of room for improvisation. From jazz ballads to contemporary classical music to modern grooves, the quartet showcases a wide range of styles, featuring well-known excellent players of the Hungarian jazz scene. The bandleader is composer and drummer Dávid Szegő, who, together with Krisztián Oláh, Dániel Mester, Gábor Subicz and Ernő Hock, unleashes a force that guarantees to captivate all listeners.Details -

Binder Trio plays Bartók – album premiere (HU)
20:00Károly Binder is a musician of high calibre, who puts his talents at the service of the synthesis of new trends, different musical cultures, compositional techniques and improvisational systems, not forgetting his own musical roots. He is an autonomous composer whose piano playing and compositions cannot be classified by style or genre. Since the late 1970s, Binder has pursued with unrelenting consistency the path he set for himself, a path on which he had no Hungarian predecessors. In his musical development, alongside the immense oeuvre of Béla Bartók, we can clearly trace the influence of the folk music of the Carpathian Basin and the melodic world of the Volga-Kama region, and even the American repetitive school hallmarked by Steve Reich. He has released more than 85 albums to date; this evening, he and his trio will present their latest album, inspired by Béla Bartók's masterful pedagogical miniatures, For Children.Details -

GoetheJazz | BMC Records Goes Live | Six – Weber – Ávéd: Transcendent Triptych (AT/DE/HU)
20:00If you’re feeling sacrilegious, call them the contemporary trinity: drawing back the curtain on future sound spheres, The Transcendent Triptych calls on early, classical and folkloric music to redefine modern avant-garde Jazz. Akin to the still-standing architecture of old, this ensemble of storied composer-musicians is built upon a tried-and-true triangular foundation: percussionist Tilo Weber – a force in the Berlin music scene (David Friedman Generations Trio, Y-Otis, Keno, winner of the Deutsche Jazzpreis 2022) – lends his mallets to the drums and vibraphone while Austrian pianist David Six (Bill Frisell, Bryce Dessner, Stargaze) sets himself to the piano and harpsichord. Rounding out the trio with his tenor saxophone, János Ávéd (Randy Brecker, Benny Golson) brings his stratified musical voice, informed by more than a decade at the Budapest Modern Art Orchestra and countless collaborations with icons of the Hungarian and international jazz scene. In this constellation, the star-studded troupe has produced pieces such as “Lound”, the dreamy, intimate embodiment of their name. As if in meditation, all musical streams flow into one whitewater torrent – the avid listener, however, is not thrown off-course by the jutting powerplays. Fickle rhythms, profound structures and nuanced melodies course through the piece with tenderness, ready to cross their own aqueous boundaries at a moment’s notice. Our visionary trio goes on to moonlight as musical time-travellers, lifting the musical veil with “Minta”. Tastefully lyrical, sophisticated and subtle, this piece approaches its audience with open arms from a time yet to come. In 2025, the debut of this all-star trio will be released on renowned Budapest label, BMC Records. Victoriah SzirmaiDetails -

MAO Legendary Albums | An Evening with Anita O'Day (HU)
20:00This evening actually happened on three nights, recorded during three different studio sessions between April 1954 and August 1955. O’Day was signed by the young Los Angeles producer Norman Granz (Jazz at the Philharmonic), Jimmy Rowles and two lesser-known pianists were engaged, and guitarist Tal Farlow contributed on four tracks. The singer’s straightforward, veiled delivery, which avoids the broader vibrato and is equally captivating when ironical or wistful, has been likened by many to a saxophone. Her performance at the Newport Jazz Festival in a few years is in the annals of jazz history. Here, O’Day makes the standards (The Man I Love, There’ll Never Be Another You) her own, and her original blues track shows why black jazz musicians always said yes right away when Anita O’Day invited them. The internationally renowned singer Júlia Karosi, who is also breaking new ground with her own band, recommended the production to the orchestra and will also take on the role of O’Day.Details -

Fusio Group feat. Erika Kertész (HU)
20:00The Fusio Group is the most unique fusion jazz band in Hungary, not only thanks to the compositions of Péter Szendőfi, but also as the result of the chemistry between the five musicians, refined over many years. The band was founded in 1992. In the past decades they have released 8 albums, in 2022 presenting their latest, 30th anniversary album XXX. Since 2023 they have been performing with singer Erika Kertész. The backbone of their repertoire is the music from the XXX album, some of which was originally instrumental, but band leader Szendőfi has written English texts for them. Erika's unique voice, clearcut rhythms and performance style perfectly match the band's well established sound, and harmonise marvellously with the often virtuosic, dynamic themes and the large-scale improvisations.Details -

j(A)zz! | Tres Caballeros (AT)
20:00Connected by the love for classic guitar trios, role models like Bill Frisell or John Scofield, and the affinity for an intimate, acoustic sound, Tobias Faulhammer, Gregor Aufmesser and Jakob Kammerer strive to create spaces of creative freedom within jointly constructed musical arrangements. Searching for these creative spaces, the three musicians, who are firmly rooted in the Austrian jazz scene, create unique musical moments through joint improvisation. On their self-titled debut album, the three Caballeros present ten compositions by band leader Tobias Faulhammer. They have also been joined by two guests, Clara Montocchio (vocals) and Max Tschida (organ) for two pieces. The album was recorded, mixed and mastered by extraordinary sound engineer Christoph Burgstaller, and released in November on cracked anegg records.Details -

Concerto Budapest: Concerto Violin Festival | Bach – Baráti, Keller, Camerata Pelsonore
18:00Concerto Budapest will be holding its three-day violin festival featuring Hungarian violinists for the first time in 2025. In addition to showcasing the inexhaustible range of possibilities the instrument has to offer, the Violin Festival also provides an opportunity to encounter our nation’s finest violinists, including several combinations of teachers and students. Joining Kristóf Baráti, Barnabás Kelemen, Katalin Kokas and Júlia Pusker on the programme will be some representatives of the younger generation of Hungarian violinists, such as Teo Gertler, Amira Abouzahra, Mariam Abouzahra and Gáspár Kelemen, along with artists from other countries like Lilia Pocitari, the winner of the 2023 Bartók World Competition. As it is the objective of Concerto Budapest to celebrate this wonderful instrument in as much of its full diversely as possible over the course of three entire days, we will hear it played in trios, string quartets and other chamber music configurations, as well as in chamber orchestral works and concertos accompanied by a large orchestra.Details -

Cafuné: Carnival de Budapest (HU)
20:00Incorporating Latin American serenity and sweet melancholy, Cafuné's repertoire is made up of special pieces of traditional South American guitar music. The world of pulsating samba and soft bossa nova is reminiscent of the jazz clubs of the sixties. In its acoustic sound, the band aims to continue the tradition of Dilermando Reis, Augusto Garoto, Baden Powell and Luiz Bonfa. This sound is further enhanced by the voice of Anna Pataki, who interprets this style with rare naturalness in Portuguese and Spanish. In the past two years, they released two albums, Inspiração and Carimbo, containing internationally less-known pieces of Brazilian music, uniting sparkles, elegance, virtuosity, freedom, melancholy and joy.Details -

Nasip Kismet (TR/HU)
20:00Serendipity is not only the closest meanings of Nasip Kısmet, but also the best way to describe this international band’s authentic, multi-genre music: an ancient folk melody turns into a psychedelic outburst by a sudden chord progression, then eases into a mild jazz-fusion breeze by a touch of masterful musicianship. Nasip Kısmet was founded in Budapest in 2019 by Turkish musician Arif Erdem Ocak, who is also the founder and guitarist of the famous Turkish band Seksendört. The band consists of high-caliber jazz musicians from the Hungarian jazz scene, such as Daniel Mester (saxophone & clarinet), David Szegő (drums) and Marton Eged (bass guitar); and Turkish folk/rock musicians, siblings Arif Erdem (guitar & vocals) and Derya Ocak (vocals). Nasip Kısmet plays Turkish psychedelic-folk/jazz/fusion genres and continues to grow its audience throughout Europe.Details -

Transparent Sound 2025 | Filmclub - Away, no matter where
18:00The piece is based on Claudio Monteverdi's 1638 scena when the Crusader knight Tancred fights Clorinda, the pagan girl to a tragic ending. The theatre play uses the instruments of physical theatre and music to further explore the timeless morale of the story and the dramatic situation. Equal emphasis is laid on the classical sound articulation of opera singers, the more simple and natural singing of actors and the static and dynamic possibilities of stage situations arising from the interaction of prose manifestations and bodies.Details -

Protean Quartet | 1+1=1 – Bach, Glass, Pärt
19:00Dive into an evocative exploration of duality, where the line between individual expression and collective harmony dissolves into one transformative experience. This thoughtfully curated program spans polyphonic and minimalist masterpieces, from the visionary chants of Hildegard von Bingen and the intricate counterpoints of Johann Sebastian Bach to the modern meditative works of Arvo Pärt and the hypnotic rhythms of Steve Reich.

The carefully designed light show complements each composition, amplifying the ambiance and forging a deep, emotional resonance that transcends time. Prepare for an experience that redefines the boundaries between performer and listener, as each note and ray of light become a shared heartbeat, guiding all through a journey of unity and contemplation.

Ádám Móser – Márton Kovács: Gyimesi | Trio Sordini (HU)
20:00In his compositions, Ádám Móser has created a contemporary Gyimesi chamber music, which always evokes the turns of authentic Gyimesi folk music, yet its structure is based on quite different foundations. The music of Zerkula, Halmágyi or the Tímár brothers can be heard in his motifs, but the pieces are sometimes close to free-flowing, improvisatory, and sometimes to repetitive, contemporary chamber music. In the duo, Ádám Móser plays accordion and Márton Kovács plays violin. Both have many years of folk music experience behind them, and both have thrown themselves into the world of improvisational chamber music. Three years ago, three musicians, who were also at home in theater circles, thought that they would call the sounds, rhythms and melodies they played in the plays directed by János Mohácsi to an independent life. They thought that the stringed strings of different origins, tearing apart from the system of a theatrical performance, could also come into contact with each other and tell further stories to both the musicians and even more so to the audience. And over time, more and more new melodies and rhythms emerge in the sometimes seemingly endless sound maze of the Trio Sordini. Composition and improvisation, traveling from everywhere to everywhere: More than an hour and a half of unstoppable sound streams in two parts.Details -

This time they perform in a trio lineup to create a more intimate yet still pulsating and rhythmic sound. Viktor Tóth has released eight albums so far, several of which have won the Jazz Album of the Year award in Hungary; each of his recordings and ensembles represent a different sound. What they have in common is an innovative spirit, overwhelmingly powerful expression and melodic richness. They invite the audience on an exceptional flight over landscapes of swing-based modern jazz and broken grooves.Details -

Transparent Sound 2025 | Harvey Sachs: Schoenberg - Why He Matters
18:00 Book PresentationBook PresentationArnold Schönberg (1874-1951) zsidó származású osztrák-amerikai zeneszerző a maga idejében nemzetközi ikon volt, tizenkétfokú kompozíciós technikáját, a dodekafóniát sokan a zene jövőjének tartották. Manapság azonban ritkán játsszák műveit, neve jobb esetben közömbösséget, rosszabb esetben ellenszenvet vált ki. Harvey Sachs, a neves zenetudós megkísérli visszahelyezni Schönberget az őt megillető helyre mint a huszadik század egyik legnagyobb hatású zeneszerzőjét és tanárát, aki dacolva kritikusaival - köztük a műveit "degeneráltnak" nevező nácikkal -, akkora változásokat indított el, amelyek a mai napig érzékelhetők, és akinek a kompozícióival mindenkinek érdemes megismerkednie, akit érdekel a nyugati zene múltja, jelene és jövője. Harvey Sachs (1946) amerikai-kanadai muzikológus, számos kiváló zenei könyv - egyebek mellett egy nagy Toscanini-életrajz - szerzője éppen azt tudja, amit egy jó biográfusnak tudnia kell: olvasmányosan írni és a sok éves kutatáson alapuló tényeket úgy bemutatni, hogy az minden, a 20. század hihetetlenül gazdag kultúr- és zenetörténete iránt érdeklődő olvasó számára érdekes legyen.

János Vázsonyi Trio, guest: Saïd Tichiti (HU/MA)
20:00János Vázsonyi's trio wonders on the boundaries of classical, jazz and folk music, exploring analogies between genres. Their concerts are thus a journey through music history, from ancient Greek music to contemporary music, where the specific musical styles frame the spontaneous improvisations as a theme. János Nagy needs little introduction to Hungarian jazz fans, but few know that he also has a close connection with church music; their saxophone-organ duo album with János Vázsonyi was recorded in a Budapest church. Flóra Joubert is an excellent partner in this lineup, as her sophisticated playing organically blends into the improvisations, which can almost be described as chamber music. Their guest on this evening will be Moroccan-born singer-musician Saïd Tichiti, expanding the trio's musical world with the trance-like repetitive style of the gnawa (Berber) tradition, accompanied by exotic instruments such as the guembri (three-stringed Arabic bass instrument) or the oud (Arabic lute).Details -

BMC Records Goes Live | Hans Lüdemann TransEuropeExpress Ensemble feat. Burcu Karadağ (DE/FR/TR)
20:00Hans Lüdemann and his French-German octet TransEuropeExpress have started their long-term Pan-European project On the Edges in 2019 and are now presenting the premiere of the fourth edition entitled Oriental Express. This ensemble of outstanding soloists now welcomes the great Ney flutist Burcu Karadağ from Istanbul as their special guest. She is an international soloist with classical orchestras, but also improvises and collaborates with jazz musicians. Hans Lüdemann has spent several longer periods as an artist in residence in Istanbul between 2021 and 2024, and they have been working with Burcu as a duo since then, including performances at CRR Philharmonic Hall and AKM in Istanbul. They developed a program of original music and also made re-interpretations of some pieces of oriental music like Kendim Ettim by Neset Ertas. The Ney flute is the core instrument of oriental and Turkish music, even constituting the names of different scales and tonalities. The character of the Ney is quite different from the Western flute as it requires a lot more air for the sound to be produced. This means that the music needs more space between the notes – and also behind them. The secret of the Ney is to connect us with a different, spiritual level. Hans Lüdemann has created new compositions and arrangements that give room for the special magic of the Ney flute and reflect his experience of Istanbul and the Orient in a poetic way. Hans Lüdemann, the TransEuropeExpress and Burcu Karadağ are also recording the music for a new album to be released on BMC Records. On the Edges is a Pan-European initiative to be realized in 5 different projects and album productions, each of them a creative musical encounter reaching to a border region of Europe and beyond. The idea, originally inspired by Navid Kermani’s book Along the trenches, has been transformed into the creation of a broad mosaic of musical colors within this frame. Each project is developed and realized in cooperation and exchange with guest artists and/or composers from the specific regions. The thread that finally connects all of the projects is a composition by Lüdemann in several parts, coming together to form a complete musical picture. The previous albums in the series were released on BMC Records: the critically acclaimed Maghreb Express with Majid Bekkas, Polar Express with Kalle Kalima and Sofia Jernberg, and, most recently, Roman Express with Rita Marcotulli and Luciano Biondini, which was nominated for the Deutscher Jazzpreis 2024.Details -

Dániel Mester Trio, guest: Kálmán Balogh (HU)
20:00"Daniel's works show great control and versatility on all levels. Being equally at ease with the jazz and symphonic idiom, both his compositions and arrangements show complete awareness of what is relevant in today's orchestral music. His affinity with drama and his gift to encompass this in music make him a natural film composer." - Jurre Haanstra, composer Daniel Mester travelled around the world to find his own musical universe, which accommodates the melodies of Anatolia, Indonesian scales and imaginary Hungarian folk songs. He began his musical studies as a classical clarinetist, and later started to learn jazz saxophone playing. He graduated at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, and he not only had the opportunity to perform in many parts of the world (South Korea, Indonesia, Turkey, Brazil, Morocco), but also to learn about musical heritages outside of Western musical traditions. He composed a couple of filmscores, and studying Turkish classical and folk music is another current inspiration for him, the impact of which is echoing in his compositions. His long-cherished dream of founding his own trio came true with the pandemic. He invited two talents of the young Hungarian jazz generation, guitarist Péter Cseh and drummer Tamás Hidász into this musical adventure. This evening, they will also be joined by the virtuosic master of the cimbalom, Kálmán Balogh. www.mesterdaniel.comDetails -

BMC Records Goes Live | Daniel Erdmann's Thérapie de Couple (DE/FR)
20:00Thérapie de couple – we are talking, of course, about the Germany-France couple, the engine of Europe, which now and then finds itself in crisis. Saxophonist and bandleader Daniel Erdmann is the ideal counsellor because he knows the differences, the similarities, the possible misunderstandings, the psychology of these two countries very well. He is particularly pleased to have been invited to put together a new German-French sextet and, in selecting musicians, has opted for a combination of those he already knows very well – and the security that comes with that –, and inviting completely new people who bring with them the desire and magic of uncertainty. Daniel Erdmann has been travelling between Germany and France for over 20 years. German-French and European projects are at the centre of his work, in which he has been supported by Philippe Ochem and the Jazzdor Festival from the very beginning. Jazzdor is once again a partner and sponsor for the new band. Projects over the past 20 years include bands such as Das Kapital and Velvet Revolution, but also quartets, trios and duos with Heinz Sauer, Christophe Marguet, Vincent Courtois, Aki Takase, Henri Texier and many others. Two musicians from France, with whom Erdmann has played a lot in recent years, have agreed to join him in the new project: violinist Théo Ceccaldi, member of the band Velvet Revolution, and cellist Vincent Courtois, with whom Daniel Erdmann has been working in various bands since 2008, first in a quartet with Frank Möbus and Samuel Rohrer, then in Vincent’s trio with Robin Fincker and on the side in various projects with painters, actors, singers. All these common experiences can be a basis for imagining a band sound when composing. Other band members who have accepted the offer of this new collaboration include the young French clarinettist Hélène Duret, who is currently touring all the clubs and festivals in France with her band Suzanne. Her velvety clarinet sound combines wonderfully with the saxophone sound of Daniel Erdmann. The rhythmic basis of this sextet is formed by drummer Eva Klesse and bassist Robert Lucaciu, two now established greats of the German jazz scene, who in turn know each other well from the Leipzig jazz scene. A solid rhythm section that can also go unexpected ways, different generations and individual voices that can also put themselves at the service of the group sound. A German-French couple therapy full of the joy of playing with some of the best musicians of both countries. That is Daniel Erdmann’s idea for this new adventure. Before the concert, they are recording their debut album to be released on BMC Records in the near future.Details -

Over the past fifteen years he has played with such prestigious Hungarian musicians as Aladár Pege, Imre Kőszegi, Gyula Babos or the Cotton Club Singers. Pataj Jazz Quintet, his own band was founded in 2009, and after a few changes, the present solid lineup of prominent musicians of the Budapest jazz scene came to being. The quintet revives the hard-bop genre of the '60s and '70s: their sound reflects the world of groups led by outstanding personalities of the period (Miles Davis, Art Blakey, Freddie Hubbard, McCoy Tyner, Lee Morgan, Benny Golson, Cannonball Adderley).Details -

À la MAO | MAO plays Oriental Music (HU)
20:00The Modern Art Orchestra's À la MAO... series aims to present compositions and adaptations, sometimes originals, by members of the orchestra in a new context. In recordings and concerts, the orchestra has created a repertoire that is unparalleled in the history of Hungarian jazz. Some of these pieces have never been heard before by old or new followers, arranged in a new thematical, stylistic or other way. Additionally, some of them have never been released on disc or digitally. The mythical magic of the Far East and the Balkan or Asia Minor have often influenced pieces of recent Hungarian music history, they now provide the thematic link to the oriental music programme. An unmissable piece in such a programme is the orchestra leader Kornél Fekete-Kovács's suite Yamas and Nyamas, of which the movement Tapas is based on an Indian raga. Actually, Bartók also collected folk music in Asia Minor, and in recent years the MAO has systematically adapted Bartók's works, such as the 15 Hungarian Peasant Songs, to its own sound. Some compositions by the in-house composers of the Modern Art Orchestra have also revealed Balkan, Indian and Arabic musical influences.Details -

MAO Legendary Albums | Roy Hargrove: With the Tenors of Our Time (HU)
00:00The brilliant and versatile Roy Hargrove summoned this parade 30 years ago, documented on 73+ minutes. Hargrove (1969-2018) created wonders: in addition to his quintet albums, he founded a big band and opened wide doors to hip-hop and R&B. Here, as one of the ambitious young lions, he provides yet another example of positioning his generation in the jazz tradition, while happily savouring every minute of musical encounters. The Cyrus Chestnut-Rodney Whitaker-Gregory Hutchinson rhythm section features saxophonists in their 30s: Ron Blake, Branford Marsalis and Joshua Redman, as well as grand masters Johnny Griffin, Joe Henderson and Stanley Turrentine. Hargrove shines as a bandleader, composer, soloist and host, smiling as he opens the door to the parade of saxophone stars. Kristóf Bacsó, János Ávéd, Árpád Dennert and Balázs Cserta - almost the entire MAO saxophone chorus - take turns interpreting the music of their great predecessors, while Kornél Fekete-Kovács takes the trumpet part.Details -

Music-Favorites in 60 Minutes – with the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra – 4/3
19:00Romanticism – Grieg, Dvořák and Tchaikovsky Shouldn't we get carried away by the extremely powerful musical motifs or melt away listening to the melodies gently finding their way to our hearts? Of course, we should! The Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra intends to achieve just that with the programme compiled from the best-known Romantic compositions. Among the three great Romantic masters, there is a Czech composer whose name might sound somewhat unknown. Josef Suk, however, does belong to the 'family', Dvořák’s family: first, he was Dvořák's student, and then later, he joined privately as well. At the age of 19, he managed to write his Saranade in a nearly perfect Dvořákian style as the follower of his future father-in-law.Details -

BMC Records Goes Live | Schubert NOW! – album premiere (HU)
19:00The new production of harpist Anastasia Razvalyaeva, singer Veronika Harcsa and composer Bálint Bolcsó translates Schubert's music into contemporary musical language. After their album Debussy NOW!, released in 2020 on BMC Records and acclaimed internationally, the artists adapted the songs of another composer to their own instruments and language. Improvisations, timbres between classical and jazz vocal techniques, and live electronic effects further expand the infinite, sensual and eerily beautiful universe of Schubert's songs, while at the same time enhancing the expressive tools of the human voice, and the harp. The well-known, perennial songs are transformed into a truly contemporary spatial experience in the trio's performance. The full material of the album Schubert NOW!, to be released in early 2025, will be heard live for the first time at this concert, in the Concert Hall of BMC.Details -

Gábor Csalog Sundays – Dialogues with (the) Music | Schubert and the Hopelessness
18:00In the early 20th century, his music found its way easily into the affected world of operetta with Das Dreimäderlhaus, and his oeuvre is full of light, casual pieces written for the music lovers of early 19th-century Vienna, yet few in the history of Western art music have gone as far as Franz Schubert in capturing human hopelessness. “All is going shamefully,” he wrote to a friend in the early 1820s, “for in this miserable world it is the fate of almost every sensible man. And what are we to do with happiness when unhappiness is now our only stimulant.” The biographical reasons for this unhappiness (ranging from love disappointment to financial difficulties and fatal illness) are less interesting than how we listeners today, 200 years later, can experience the hopelessness represented in Schubert's music – in this case, in the grand Piano Sonata in A minor composed in 1825. In the first half of the evening, pianist Gábor Csalog and music historian Gergely Fazekas will discuss how the feeling of hopelessness can be expressed in music, using examples from other works too. The language of this conversation is Hungarian.Details -

Korossy Quartet: Béla Bartók's String Quartets No. 5 | Bartók and Mozart
19:00Founded in 2018, the Korossy Quartet aims to transmit the famous Hungarian string quartet tradition, and to present the broadest possible repertoire to Hungarian and foreign audiences. In 2021, the ensemble was awarded 5 different special prizes at the international Bartók World Competition, and a year later they were accepted into the class of Günter Pichler, first violinist of the legendary Alban Berg Quartet, at the Reina Sofia School of Music in Madrid. The Korossy Quartet's Bartók series, starting in autumn 2023, includes all of Bartók's string quartets in 6 concerts over 2 years, paired with a selection of works by the greatest composers of music history. Béla Bartók's String Quartet No 5 is perhaps the most outstanding reflection of his genius in the genre. While each movement in the bridge form is an exemplar of musical streamlining, each note captivate the listener with an elemental expressive and magnetic quality. Mozart also shows the very best of his composing abilities in his last String Quartet in F major. Both works are characterised by wise structures, and stunningly perfect and sensuous formal design. The instruments exist both in their individual capacity and in community, so that they can sometimes become instruments of the most intimate confession. This kind of dramatic writing also refers these two works in the highest ranks of string quartet literature. Photo: Andrea FelvégiDetails -

MAO Legendás Albumok | Wes Montgomery: Smokin' at the Half Note (HU)
20:00Not just the members of the quartet, this album is a legend in itself. Two originals have become standards from it. By 1965, the self-taught Montgomery received many invitations, including one from New York’s Half-Note. The rhythm section, Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers and Jimmy Cobb, had accompanied Miles Davis for four years. For some reason, only No Blues and If I Could See Me Now have made it from the concert onto the first release, the rest were studio recordings three months later. Two tracks with numbered titles, Unit 7 and Four on Six, became standards from this album, but the bluesy, hidden tension of What’s New is also full of excitement. The almost breathless momentum all the way through is impressive, like a hissing steam engine at full speed, and it’s not just the guitar that gives that feeling. It’s the piano and accompaniment throughout as well, as they reveal simple yet nuanced melodies with the endlessly precise interplay of the whole quartet. The first LP release has been followed by numerous analogue and digital discs since 1965, because this material never gets old. The guitarist of MAO, Áron Komjáti, a master of shades depicting any colour of jazz, interprets the classic tracks as a soloist on the podium.Details -

20:00The Modern Art Orchestra's À la MAO... series aims to present compositions and adaptations, sometimes originals, by members of the orchestra in a new context. In recordings and concerts, the orchestra has created a repertoire that is unparalleled in the history of Hungarian jazz. Some of these pieces have never been heard before by old or new followers, arranged in a new thematical, stylistic or other way. Additionally, some of them have never been released on disc or digitally. Big bands achieved their greatest popularity during the swing era, and the Modern Art Orchestra, embracing the jazz tradition, is keen to return to its roots. Recently, trombone player Attila Korb's suite Swinging on the Danube was written entirely in this style, in which the composer plays several instruments, including a memorable bass saxophone solo. Not only Korb performs regularly in traditional orchestras, also some other composers are rooted in the swing tradition, whether in rhythm, harmony or the pulsation of the kind that the Ellington and Co’s song says without swing „it don’t mean a thing”.Details -

Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) III. | Haydn and Beethoven
19:00After four concerts in 2023, János Mátyás Stark, Gergely Devich and Fülöp Ránki are announcing a new series at the BMC, now under the name of Trio Haris. The third concert will feature two of the classical giants of the piano trio genre, Haydn and Beethoven. Haydn, as in so many of his works, is making countless subtle jokes in his Trio in E major. Even the string pizzicatos of the main theme at the very beginning of the piece are not out of the ordinary, not to mention the long piano solo in the slow movement and the sometimes breakneck modulations. The work's majesty and loftiness make it an ideal counterpart to Beethoven's 'Archduke' Trio – although their character makes it evident that while Haydn dedicated his trio to a virtuoso pianist, Beethoven's piece is addressed to Archduke Rudolf of Habsburg-Lorraine, to whom the composer dedicated many of his compositions. One of the most large-scale works in the trio repertoire, it is symphonic in scale yet retains the softness of the B flat major tonality and the the intimacy so characteristic of a small chamber ensemble, and its Andante in D major is one of Beethoven's most touching slow variational movements.

St.EFREM: A Genius is Born III. | Béla Bartók and his Musical Heritage
19:00Among the pillars of StEFREM's broad repertoire are works for male choir by Hungarian composers, primarily Liszt, Bartók and Kodály, as well as compositions dedicated to the ensemble by contemporary Hungarian masters. They have released several albums of these works on BMC Records. The series A Genius Is Born is a tribute to the male choir works by the three greatest Hungarian masters of music, so it is no coincidence that the concerts are taking place on the composers' birthdays. A special feature of the concert programme is that StEFREM's personal selection of works by the classical composers is complemented by outstanding and interesting pieces by their "heirs", the Hungarian composers of the 20th and 21st centuries. StEFREM is a Budapest-based vocal ensemble with a unique sound. The multi award-winning ensemble regularly performs throughout Europe, from London to Bucharest, and has also performed in Africa, India and South America. They have worked with renowned artists such as Abeer Nehme, Victor Solomon, and the King's Singers, and have released 18 albums since 2002. Their rich and varied repertoire includes Byzantine and classical pieces, crossover arrangements and acapella pop songs. Béla Bartók was born 143 years ago on one of the most important Christian feasts: the Feast of the Assumption, also known as the Feast of the Annunciation, on 25 March. Bartók's unique, pure art has quickly become particularly influential for the whole music culture, and continues to be so even 80 years after his death. Out of the Hungarian geniuses, Liszt wrote more than sixty male works, Kodály twenty, Bartók only six, but these are true gems of the genre, and span his entire oeuvre. In particular, the Songs from Olden Times and the Székely Folk Songs are seminal in the literature of men's choral music. In the final episode of the three-part concert series A Genius is Born, Bartók's works will be accompanied by compositions and transcriptions by six contemporary Hungarian composers. Further concerts in this series: 22 October 2024 19:00 St.EFREM: A Genius is Born I. | Franz Liszt and his Musical Heritage16 December 2024 19:00 St.EFREM: A Genius is Born II. | Zoltán Kodály and his Musical HeritageDetails -

Cuarteto Matrice | Echoes of Latitude: A journey from Europe to America in the 20th Century
19:00Under the lens of music understood as intercultural dialogue, this program proposes a musical journey from north to south across Europe and America, framed within the 20th century. It is a voyage that explores the diverse outcomes of musical composition during those decades, shaped by the different sensibilities and characteristics of the various latitudes of both continents. The program is divided into two parts: Europe (starting point of the north-to-south musical dialogue) and the Americas (second half of the journey and the musical dialogue between continents and styles). The Cuarteto Matrice was born in 2016 in Madrid, the city where the musicians met and are currently based and developing their career with the ensemble, always having the objective of communicating with the audience through the different languages of music and performance. The name of the quartet itself comes from the ancient name of the city of Madrid, Matrice, an Arabic term for "mother of waters". The members of the quartet have studied at some of the main musical institutions in Europe, such as the Royal Academy of Music of London, Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía, the Royal Conservatory of Madrid or Katarina Gurska Centre in Madrid. They have attended several masterclasses with the Kopelman Quartet’s violist Igor Sulyga. The Quartet have recently performed at some festivals across Spain as the RESIS Festival in A Coruña, Clásicos en Verano in Madrid, Sulayr Festival in Granada and FIAS Festival (Sacred Art Madrid Music Festival), where they performed the world premier of the Cuarteto nº2 by Hugo Gómez-Chao, a piece dedicated to the quartet, having great reviews from both musical press and media. The four musicians of Cuarteto Matrice have also been selected for the Musae Program promoted by the National Cultural Ministry, a project where they performed at the Sorolla National Museum and brought them a Spanish music concert series residency with the sponsorship of CNP Partners. Cuarteto Matrice have recently performed at many cities all around Spain, such as Barcelona, Bilbao and Sevilla, including remarkable venues and music halls like, Teatro Fernando de Rojas, Círculo de Bellas Artes and Athenaeum in Madrid and also Moncloa Palace, house of the Spanish Government, where they performed in 2021 as part of an homage act holded by the Spanish Arts Ministry. They have been selected as part of the MERITA platform 2023 organized by Le Dimore del Quartetto, a program that will take them to an artistic residence in Florence in 2024 as well several concerts across Europe during the current season 2024-2025. The centre of the MERITA project is the 38 quartets, selected from 61 applications received from 27 different countries. These early-career musicians represent a new generation of string quartets, and through MERITA, they will break new ground in European classical music. MERITA, coordinated by Le Dimore del Quartetto, brings together 17 leading musical and cultural organizations from 12 European countries. Each offers a unique perspective on and approach to classical music in the modern world, linked by their commitment to supporting new musicians while keeping alive music’s precious heritage. By connecting emerging talent with experts in performance with impact, MERITA aims to forge a vital and sustainable future for European classical music.Details -

MAO Legendary Albums | Joe Henderson: Griffith Park Collection (HU)
20:00Bassist Stanley Clarke’s name is at the top of this studio album cover only because of the alphabetical order: the quintet (with Freddie Hubbard, Lenny White and Chick Corea) was mainly known as the Griffith Park Band. Perhaps the biggest star at the time was saxophone legend Joe Henderson, so he got to play the first solo on most tracks. The band, acoustic throughout, presents a wide cavalcade of moods. The musicians move like big cats, stretching lazily and then rushing to attack. It’s no coincidence that the orchestra has more concert than studio recordings. Only a Steve Swallow composition is featured here, the others are original compositions in which both the highly inspirational interplay and the far-reaching impros are perfectly developed. It’s good to experience the giants of jazz-rock bath together in a hard bop river before crossing it. MAO soloists, on the other hand, can reflect on this album with four decades of accumulated musical knowledge.Details -

Music-Favorites in 60 Minutes – with the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra – 4/4
19:00Contemporary – Miho Hazama, U. C. Erkin, Christopher Cerrone, Pavel Fischer Like sports, music also has its 'tools' for performance increase and relaxation. The Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra highlights 'contemporary' in their programme without inhibitions, as with similar compilations, they have garnered great success with the audience several times before. The globally recognised ensembles strike a perfect balance in the effects by spoonfeeding us with alternating more meditative and lax works with quick and ecstatic pieces. During the concert, the audience can experience a refreshing rejuvenation and recharging of their batteries, just like after a good training session.Details -

À la MAO | MAO plays Fusion Jazz (HU)
20:00The Modern Art Orchestra's À la MAO... series aims to present compositions and adaptations, sometimes originals, by members of the orchestra in a new context. In recordings and concerts, the orchestra has created a repertoire that is unparalleled in the history of Hungarian jazz. Some of these pieces have never been heard before by old or new followers, arranged in a new thematical, stylistic or other way. Additionally, some of them have never been released on disc or digitally. On International Jazz Day, an initiative associated with the name of Herbie Hancock, one of the founding fathers of jazz-rock, it almost goes without saying that the Modern Art Orchestra will be drawing on the extensive repertoire of the jazz-rock genre. Works by the versatile trumpeter-composer Gábor Subicz, pianist Gábor Cseke, saxophone soloist Kristóf Bacsó and bandleader Kornél Fekete-Kovács form the backbone of the programme. A surprise guest will be sitting down into the drum chair.Details -

Korossy Quartet: Béla Bartók's String Quartets No. 6 | Bartók, Mozart and Webern
19:00Founded in 2018, the Korossy Quartet aims to transmit the famous Hungarian string quartet tradition, and to present the broadest possible repertoire to Hungarian and foreign audiences. In 2021, the ensemble was awarded 5 different special prizes at the international Bartók World Competition, and a year later they were accepted into the class of Günter Pichler, first violinist of the legendary Alban Berg Quartet, at the Reina Sofia School of Music in Madrid. The Korossy Quartet's Bartók series, starting in autumn 2023, includes all of Bartók's string quartets in 6 concerts over 2 years, paired with a selection of works by the greatest composers of music history. The first three movements of Bartók's String Quartet No. 6 are preceded by the same slow introduction, while the fourth movement is the unfolding of this Mesto melody into a movement in its own right. Bartók's original plan was for a life-affirming finale, but the events of the composer's life intervened: the death of his mother and the outbreak of World War II caused the quartet to end with sounds of mourning and resignation. Through the character of the work as a whole, and through the key of D minor, we can also associate Mozart's String Quartet in D minor with themes of death and passing. The concert will begin with Webern's Five movements for string quartet, composed in 1909 and also inspired by the death of the composer's mother. Photo: Andrea FelvégiDetails -

MAO Legendary Albums | Paul Desmond: First Place Again (HU)
20:00This album has been overshadowed by an even more legendary recording, but it has a lot of beauty. Saxophonist Paul Desmond is the only member of the Dave Brubeck Quartet, apart from the bandleader, to become a big name outside that quartet. Desmond recorded the album Time Out with the Dave Brubeck Quartet in August 1959 - one of the most successful jazz albums ever made. In September, guitarist Jim Hall, as well as Percy Heath and Connie Kay of the Modern Jazz Quartet joined Desmond for his second solo outing, producing another example of the golden age of laid-back, cool, elegant, swinging jazz. The quartet consistently and unwaveringly performs the hits of the era, which include MJQ numbers and standards, but the CD reissue also includes a Desmond composition. The alto saxophone is lilting and flattering, seductive and reassuring. That's why it was voted number one again in Playboy magazine that year, as the album title suggests. As many of the series’ regulars will have guessed, Árpád Dennert will evoke the sound of one of the saxophone’s unforgettable masters with the MAO's rhythm section.Details -

Gábor Csalog Sundays – Dialogues with (the) Music | Schubert and the Beauty
18:00“These are no longer the happy times when we see the glories of youth around every object, but the fatal realisation of a miserable reality which I try to embellish as much as I can with my imagination (thank God for it).” Franz Schubert wrote these lines in 1824 to his brother Ferdinand. That beauty was central to Schubert's compositional thinking hardly needs to be proved to anyone who have heard even a few minutes of Schubert's music in their lifetime. But it was precisely at the beginning of the 19th century that the concept of “sublime” began to take over the place of “beauty” in musical aesthetics, so the ineffable, unearthly beauty of Schubert's melodies was thus an imprint of an earlier era, that of Mozart and Haydn. The Piano Trio in B flat major (B. 898), which Schubert began to compose in 1827 but only completed next year before his death, offers numerous examples of the musical representation of both the concept of “beauty” and the “sublime”. Before playing the piece, Gábor Csalog, his musician friends and music historian Gergely Fazekas will discuss the change in musical aesthetics and show other examples of Schubert’s concept of beauty. The language of the conversation is Hungarian.Details -

À la MAO | MAO plays New Standards (HU)
20:00The Modern Art Orchestra's À la MAO... series aims to present compositions and adaptations, sometimes originals, by members of the orchestra in a new context. In recordings and concerts, the orchestra has created a repertoire that is unparalleled in the history of Hungarian jazz. Some of these pieces have never been heard before by old or new followers, arranged in a new thematical, stylistic or other way. Additionally, some of them have never been released on disc or digitally. The Modern Art Orchestra's last concert of the season might as well bring up Herbie Hancock's name again, because this is the title of the Hancock's sextet album released almost 30 years ago. They have been instrumentally reworking current pop hits. Of course, ever since jazz emerged, it has been using the hits of the day as a starting point to improvise, and the Great American Songbook was almost exclusively made up of musical, pop and film hits from the 1930s. In the last few decades, the freshness of new styles of pop has inspired some of the most famous foreign artists. The Hungarian jazz repertoire has also included songs by the most successful pop ensembles, while composers such as Gábor Subicz, Kristóf Bacsó and the orchestra leader Kornél Fekete-Kovács have also adapted film or stage music, creating a whole series of new jazz standards.Details -

Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) IV. | Schumann and Brahms
19:00After four concerts in 2023, János Mátyás Stark, Gergely Devich, and Fülöp Ránki are announcing a new series at the BMC, now under the name of Trio Haris. The series will conclude with works by two closely related geniuses of romantic chamber music. The professional and personal relationship between Schumann and Brahms has a wealth of musical and non-musical sources, and a vast literature. Both wrote three piano trios, the first of which will be performed in this concert. Schumann wrote his first trio in D minor (Op. 63) relatively late, and its troubled D minor, passing through the lively F major of the scherzo and the dark A minor of the slow movement, finally resolves into the luminous D major of the finale. Brahms's Trio in B flat major bears the opus number 8 – the composer wrote the first version in 1854, when he was twenty-one –, but this is misleading because it was thoroughly revised three and a half decades later. Dramaturgically, the work is essentially the reverse of Schumann's, and, uniquely among the top works of the trio repertoire, begins in a major key but ends in minor. Further concerts in this series: 5 October 2024 7 PM Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) I. | Haydn, Liszt, Schubert4 January 2025 7 PM Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) II. | Takemitsu, Schubert, Shostakovich22 March 2025 7 PM Trio Haris (Ránki – Stark – Devich) III. | Haydn and BeethovenDetails -

Sári 90 | Retrospection
19:00Composer József Sári celebrates his 90th birthday this year. On this occasion, our celebratory concert features his chamber music and solo pieces composed for a variety of instruments, including world premieres, performed by outstanding musicians of the Hungarian contemporary music scene. József Sári is a leading figure of 20th and 21st century Hungarian music, both as a composer and as a teacher. Between the 1980s and the 2000s, his works were frequently performed not only in Hungary but also throughout Europe, especially in Germany. His pedagogical work was just as highly regarded: until his retirement, he taught generations of musicians at the Béla Bartók Secondary School of Music and the Liszt Academy in Budapest, and as a guest professor at master classes. He has received numerous awards at home and abroad.Details -
