Music-making Game 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. Having looked at the musical worlds of fish, birds and angels, the final concert ventures into the forest. Naturally, we are not going to examine the whispering of trees or the roar of the stag, but rather game and hunting music – and there is plenty to choose from. A prominent role is given to the horn, the instrument of hunters, which for a long time was not even used in composed music but solely functioned as a means of communication during a hunt. Narrator for the concert is Liszt Academy teacher of piano Gábor Eckhardt, a well-known figure at youth concerts.
