UMZE Ensemble: DEAD ELVIS, FRANKENSTEIN!!

UMZE Ensemble: DEAD ELVIS, FRANKENSTEIN!!

Máté Bella is perhaps the only internationally acclaimed Hungarian composer who has achieved great success in both contemporary classical and pop music. His composition, commissioned by the UMZE Ensemble, also explores the connections between avant-garde music and pop culture in a way that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.

H. K. Gruber: Frankenstein!! (Mr. Superman) (1976–77)

Featuring:
Attila Jankó – bassoon
Máté Balogh – chansonnier
Aurél Holló – percussion
UMZE Ensemble
Conductor: Gregory Vajda

Born in 1943, H. K. Gruber is both the doyen and the daredevil of Austrian composers. His 1977 Frankenstein!! (Mr. Superman) has toured most of the world's concert halls and will be heard for the first time on the stage of the Budapest Music Center. Just as Gruber's piece evokes the classic Viennese cabaret, Aurél Holló's percussion concerto, composed for himself, evokes the world of jazz, and Michael Daugherty's bravura piece, which resurrects Elvis Presley as a bassoonist, evokes the world of rock and roll. Máté Bella is perhaps the only internationally acclaimed Hungarian composer who has achieved great success in both contemporary classical and pop music. His composition, commissioned by the UMZE Ensemble, also explores the connections between avant-garde music and pop culture in a way that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Our offer


Program: Works by Franz Schubert, Antonín Dvorák, Edvard Grieg, and Leó Weiner

This concert is an even more significant event than an album premiere.: the celebration of Borbála Dobozy’s 45-year career. Alongside two beloved concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach, she will perform a rarely heard work by Georg Anton Benda and Joseph Haydn’s Concerto in D major, usually played on a piano.

Polina Pastirchak has selected songs from the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century – providing a delightful variety nurtured by the musical atmosphere of the cities and the rich colours of late Romantic and early 20th-century style.
