Ferocious and tame instruments, spry clarinets, weeping cellos, ruminating harps and maidens with flaxen hair are running wild at the Budapest Festival Orchestra’s chamber music concert on 25 February, preceded by a lecture by Nóra Winkler and Tünde Topor with some insights into the visual arts. The listener will be transported to a fresh and contemporary musical universe that combines elements of klezmer, folk and rock, with extraordinary associations to a variety of composers, from Bach to Debussy. Intense, personal and straightforward musical stories with extreme highs and lows, performed by one of the world’s greatest orchestras. The journey will take you through the works of Philip Glass, Boulez, Orbán, Kurtág, Ustvolskaya and Gilad Cohen. And where do images come into the picture? The free lecture preceding the concert will provide you with that answer starting from 18:30 at the BMC’s library, and also to the question of what happens when a harp and a clarinet visit a museum together.
