Melodrama is a rarely heard of and interesting musical genre: an actor and, in this instance, a pianist come together to perform a piece. Instead of creating a song or opera, the composers added instrumental music only to the texts that inspired them. At the festival of the Chamber-Circle – which is an ensemble of twelve young musicians established by Róza Radnóti – the most significant melodramas are going to be performed by three young actors, Benjamin Dino, Csenge Horváth, and József Wunderlich; together with three young pianists, Imre Dani, Róza Radnóti and Fülöp Ránki. On this special occasion poems and ballads written by Lenau, Jókai, Tennyson, Turgenev are going to be performed, among others – in some cases translated to Hungarian specifically for this concert – with the musical illustration of composers such as Grieg, Schumann, Liszt or Richard Strauss.
