Formed out of the unlikely encounter between a Spanish musician/filmmaker who fell in love with the music of the Khorasan region - located around the modern border between Afghanistan and Iran - and a performer of Persian classical music, the duo known as Badieh followed up their brilliant 2021 debut album by bringing their interpretations of traditional Khorasan music to an even higher level - now as a trio.

Három akusztikus gitár, a lelket azonnal megérintő, csodás portugál nyelvű dalok, és a lecsupaszított környezetben tündöklő énekhang. Hallunk még róla, hiba lenne lemaradni első budapesti fellépéséről.

Beethoven IX. 200

One of the most celebrated organists of our time, Latvia's Iveta Apkalna trained in England and Germany after studying in her homeland, and today her playing captivates audiences all over the world. As far as Gábor Boldoczki is concerned, it is sufficient to say that he is one of the top trumpet players on the planet: a universal artist.

You never forget your first time. Chris Botti is making his first appearance at Müpa Budapest and he has big things in store. Released in October 2023, Vol. 1 is not only Botti's first album for more than a decade, it is also the trumpet player's debut record on the legendary Blue Note label.

The Met HD Live broadcasts will feature Anthony Minghella's 2006 staging of Madama Butterfly for the fourth time. This is due to the opera's enduring popularity, the timeless charm of the production, and the constantly renewed cast, which promises the dazzling debut of Lithuanian soprano Asmik Grigorian in the lead role this time around, alongside Jonathan Tetelman's Pinkerton, who has also conquered New York this season.

Tamás Molnár returns to the stage of the Festival Theatre with intimate acoustic songs, hits evoking a true festival atmosphere, cinematic musical techniques and an amazing stage show.

The divisive film Whiplash, depicting the often merciless world of a New York jazz school, premiered at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival, where it received several awards - and more recently it has been voted the best film in the festival's history.

Dávid Lamm has been on the lam. Which should come as no surprise. Who hasn't been affected by the 2020s and the dispiriting multitude of global catastrophes? A musician, at least, can find refuge in the world of sound. Lamm duly created a new project by the name of Skidaddle.

REFORMED HYMNS XXI
Part of the 19th Reformed Music Festival

The Amorf Ördögök began life as a high school band, before becoming one of the definitive groups of 21st century Hungarian pop music. The title of this concert - Minibár és a Celluxbetyár (Minibar and the Sellotape Bandit) - references the band's three album releases.

Since their formation in 2016, Slow Village - who feature three MCs and two DJs and perform old-school yet never anachronistic hip-hip - have reached the point where they can perform as a headliner in any club in Hungary and also make the night-time slots at summer festivals.

„Mesterember vagyok. Komponálás közben mindig gyaluforgácsszagot érzek a zongora mellett.” A 2023/24-es évad zeneszerzője, Orbán György fogalmazta meg ekként zeneszerzői hitvallását egy interjúban, arra utalva, hogy számára a zeneszerzés elsősorban munka és szolgálat, miként az 1800 előtti zeneszerzők számára is az volt.

András ‘Apey' Áron is one of the most well-known and most versatile songwriter-performers and bandleaders in Hungary. His name might be familiar from his work in the acclaimed, influential Hungarian rock and metal bands LAZARVS, Apey & the Pea, Trillion and - many years ago - Neck Sprain.

The duo of singer and guitarist Soma Nóvé, well-known in Hungary from the bands Middlemist Red and Mordái, and Dániel Riederauer, an electronics and bass guitar player, first performed as Samurai Drive in 2019.

The world-famous Danish baritone Bo Skovhus probably secured his place in the hearts of the Müpa Budapest audience forever when, in a 2013 production of Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, he was forced to take the stage while suffering from a painful knee problem, yet still managed to incorporate his resulting compromised ability to walk into his unforgettable portrayal.

The second evening of the Ring of the Nibelung tetralogy is the most popular of the four works: Die Walküre captivates audiences with deservedly beloved opera hits like Siegmund's Spring Song from Act 1 and, from the third act, the Ride of the Valkyries, as well as Wotan's Farewell and the Magic Fire Music.

There can hardly be imagined in our time a work that conveys a more important message to humanity, as it debates the possible fate of the earth, about threats to the natural environment than Götterdämmerung does. Perhaps there is still time for us to return the ring to the Rhinemaidens.

The essence of Gaïsha can perhaps best be described as Arab music with subtle shades of psychedelia, rap, and a Belgian twist.

Hungarian audiences may already be familiar with the belligerents of TaxiWars.

French music - just like French cuisine - is known for its refinement, its perfect harmony of flavours and colours, and the attention to details. A true gourmet's delight.
