Adam Tabajdi and Tamas Palfalvi

Christmas Organ Concert

A Christmas organ concert at which the audience will also be able to glory in the golden sound of the trumpet. Could we ever wish for a more joyous way to replenish our energy levels in the period of preparation for Christmas? Two breakout talents of the thirty-something generation, the organist Ádám Tabajdi and trumpet player Tamás Pálfalvi are both considered to be among the most successful performers on their instruments. The organ and trumpet – let’s not forget they are both ‘wind’ instruments of a sort – complement each other very well and the two musicians have already performed together, too: for the first time in Japan. The programme is full of variation and wonder: Purcell, Martini, Telemann and Bach represent the music of centuries past, while the works of Jongen, Eben, Dupré, Guy Bovetand Gershwin are music imagined for more modern times. Let the organ and trumpet sound!
