Music-making Birds A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

Nobody knows how music arose, but many believe that at some point in the distant past humanity discovered the beauty of nature’s voice and tried to copy it with instruments that were to hand. Whatever the truth, nature has always played an important role in so-called ‘classical’ music, as has the question of how we can evoke the world around us with the help of music. The relationship between music and nature is examined in the autumn semester of the Liszt Academy’s series for young people, the Liszt Kidz Academy. At this the third concert in the series, multiple prize-winning pianist József Balog and Liszt Academy music history teacher Gergely Fazekas treat the audience to a glimpse into the musical world of birds – or rather we should say a glimpse into the bird world of classical music, since they do not undertake an analysis of birdsong but rather present how composers from different ages, from the Baroque to the 20th century, represent in their works the finest singers in nature.
