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.
Concert Series 2021 Spring
Dear audience,
The current unprecedented situation forces us to adopt unconventional solutions. Our programme plans for 2021 have been drafted in part amidst the uncertainty caused by the pandemic, in the belief that we can implement them. As time passes by, it is becoming clear that the restrictions on public events will still remain a part of our lives in early 2021, and the audience will most likely only be able to meet their favourite artists in online broadcasts.
Nevertheless, we have decided to publish our programmes for the first half of 2021, even if we cannot be certain that the announced shows will actually take place as initially planned. We have already cancelled the performance of several significant foreign ensembles, and we tried to reschedule many domestic programmes for a later date, thus increasing the chances of being able to organize them in the presence of an audience. We tried to compile exciting events featuring outstanding domestic and foreign ensembles and soloists.
The list below includes our planned concerts in a thematic breakdown, similarly to our previous booklet presenting our season tickets. This time we have also grouped the programmes for which we do not usually issue a season ticket into concert series. Due to the uncertainty caused by the pandemic, we will not be issuing classic season tickets this time, and we will only start selling tickets for a particular concert once we are sure that the event can be held.
As long as the restrictions remain in place and concerts cannot be held in the presence of an audience, we will deliver the musical experience to you in the form of online streaming via our Online Concert Hall. For some shows, this may result in programme changes, but we will strive to ensure that all our concerts are organised with the participation of the initially announced contributors, featuring the original programme and at the times advertised in this publication.
We hope that everyone will find the concert series, performers and shows that best suit their interests, and that we will be able to meet you in person at our concerts as soon as possible.
We wish you a fulfilling musical experience and good health!
András Csonka
