We would like to inform our audience that according to the government decision effective from 11 November 2020, no public events can be held, so we are unable to hold concerts at the Liszt Academy with an audience. However, our audience will not be left without a concert experience, as most of our performances will be held and broadcast online in our Digital Concert Hall, and most of the concerts of the orchestras organizing concert series at the Liszt Academy will also be available online.

Liszt Academy Symphony Orchestra
Conductor: Dennis Russell Davies
It is now a tradition for members of the Liszt Academy Symphony Orchestra to come on stage under the baton of the most famous Hungarian and foreign conductors. Grammy award-winner Dennis Russell Davies, an enormously innovative and original conductor of our day, returns to the Liszt Academy with a programme of works by Brahms and Bernstein. ▪ The Piano Concerto in D minor by Brahms places considerable intellectual and physical demands on the soloist, and Bernstein’s Symphony No. 2 for piano and orchestra requires no less of the performers either. It takes its name The Age of Anxiety from a poem by Pulitzer Prize-winning artist W. H. Auden. ▪ At the April concert in the Masters of the Orchestra series, in addition to Dennis Russell Davies and instrumental students of the Liszt Academy, the audience can enjoy two fine soloists: József Balog, one of the most versatile pianists of Hungarian music, and Marcell Vajda, looked on as an enormously promising young talent.
