Grace, variety, colour – Bizet’s Suite No. 1 from the incidental music to L’Arlésienne (The Girl from Arles) offers all this and more. Camille Saint-Saëns’s Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor dazzles the listener with its stylistic multiplicity, while Brahms’s Symphony No. 3 in F major does the exact opposite: it is an extremely unified piece of music that faithfully represents the composer’s distinctive voice. The fifth concert of the Hungarian National Philharmonic’s Kocsis season ticket will be conducted by the orchestra’s general music director, György Vashegyi. The piano concerto promises to keep us on the edges of our seats as its soloist is the stunningly talented Alexander Malofeev. The Russian virtuoso, who is just 23 years old, returns after his previous successful guest appearance with the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra.

Palace of Arts Müpa Budapest
When Müpa Budapest, Hungary and its capital's new cultural hub, opened in 2005, it was built to represent more than 100 years of Hungarian cultural history. As a conglomeration of cultural venues, the building has no precedent in 20th century Hungarian architecture and has no peers in the whole of Central Europe.
The creators of this ambitious project, the Trigránit Development Corporation, prime contractor Arcadom Construction and the Zoboki, Demeter and Partners Architectural Office, were driven by the desire to create a new European cultural citadel as part of the new Millennium City Centre complex along the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Danube waterfront. The result is a facility whose construction quality, appearance, functionality and 21st century technological infrastructure makes it ideally suited to productions of the highest standard. The building is also highly versatile and equipped to host performances of any genre and almost any scale.
