The concert held at the Liszt Academy on January 18th with the participation of conductor András Keller and renowned violinists was a great success, and can also be viewed online for ten days on various streaming platforms. On January 18th, four masterpieces of violin literature, the violin concertos by Tchaikovsky, Mendelssohn, Brahms and Bartók, were performed by Concerto Budapest under the baton of András Keller in the Great Hall of the Liszt Academy, with such excellent soloists as Abouzahra Mariam, Kristóf Baráti, Barnabás Kelemen and Lilia Pocitari. The artists paid tribute to the memory of three great Hungarian violin legends, Dénes Kovács, who passed away twenty years ago, and György Pauk and János Rolla, who recently passed away. The host of the evening was Tamás Körner. The live stream can be viewed on the Concerto Budapest YouTube channel for 10 days after the broadcast, and can also be viewed on the Papageno Live platform.

The Concerto Budapest festival entitled A Celebration of the Violin will not take place in January due to technical reasons, the orchestra will instead reschedule the festival for early summer. Concerto Budapest will hold a Violin Gala on 18 January, in which several artists from A Celebration of the Violin will participate. “The staging of A Celebration of the Violin unfortunately encountered a number of technical issues and severe logistical obstacles related to the orchestra’s international commitments. Since the festival is of key importance, we wish to uphold not only its content, but also its artistic concept, so we had no choice to postpone the series of events. We are holding a Violin Gala on 18 January featuring Mariam Abouzahra, Kristóf Baráti, Barnabás Kelemen and Lilia Pocitari, who will perform concertos by Tchaikovsky, Mendelssohn, Brahms and Bartók,” chief music director András Keller stated.

After the visits of Christian Tetzlaff and Augustin Hadelich, another international star violinist is coming to Concerto Budapest to lead a session. Anthony Marwood, a violinist with a distinguished career as a soloist, conductor and chamber musician, will hold a free master class for exceptional talents studying at the university level at Concerto Budapest’s headquarters on Páva Street on 6 December from 17:00 to 19:00.
