In 1945, two young Hungarian artists born in Romania ventured across the Hungarian border and made a pilgrimage to Budapest to have a share in Bartók's legacy. The revolution in 1956 separated them physically, but their relationship – despite their opposed way of thinking – has never been broken since they met for the first time. Kurtág insisted that Ligeti's pieces must be included at the concerts celebrating his birthday, and now, on the centenary of Ligeti's birth, we are no doubt fulfilling his wish by featuring his works along with those of Kurtág. Distinguished Hungarian and international performers will pay tribute to the two flag-bearers of European culture: composer-improvisator Lukas Ligeti, young star Nicolas Namoradze, the queen of violists, Kim Kashkashian, Iceland's Glenn Gould, Víkingur Ólafsson, the captivating Steven Isserlis, one of Ligeti's and Kurtág's Hungarian experts, Gábor Csalog, the pioneering duo of Zoltán Rácz and Aurél Holló, and the master of the barrel organ, Pierre Charial, who transcribed some of Ligeti’s works in collaboration with the composer himself.
Our offer
The five musicians who make up the quintet are perhaps most united by their sensitivity towards quality. Having explored the myriad shades of jazz and classical music, the need to develop their own language and their own sound becomes the most important common aim in this formation.
