Cancelled | Concerto Budapest: Concerto Violin Festival | Kurtág - Komsi, Keller

17 January 2025. 8:00 pm
Budapest Music Center - Concert Hall
1093 Budapest, Mátyás utca 8.

Concerto 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 diversity 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.
