Dear viewers, We would like, even during this extraordinary situation, for our fantastic audience to still be able to encounter the world's most outstanding and thrilling artists each evening – in the safety of their own homes. We believe that there are no limits to the "Müpa Budapest experience", which is why we decided to unlock our media library for everyone over the weeks to come and – each night at the familiar times: 7 pm, 7.30 pm or 8 pm, depending on genre – open Müpa Budapest's virtual concert hall by providing access to an unforgettable performance from past years, which we'll transmit on our website, our Facebook page and our YouTube channel. What is more, as a member of the European Concert Hall Organisation (ECHO) and in the spirit of international solidarity, we will also be streaming concerts on our Facebook page from different prestigious concert halls around Europe, from Lisbon and Hamburg to London – trusting that this will make evenings at home more pleasant. Take good care, and let's continue to stick together!
The broadcast of Konserthuset Stockholm Konserthuset Stockholm / 1 June 2020, Monday, 8.00 pm
Featuring: Joakim Svenheden – violin • Patrik Swedrup – viola Johannes Rostamo – cello • Martin Sturfält – piano Presenter: Klas Gagge Andrée: Piano Quartet in A minor • Maier-Röntgen: Piano Quartet in E minor
Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra 2 June 2020, Tuesday, 8.00 pm
Featuring: Dezső Ránki – piano • Conductor: János Kovács Scriabin: The Poem of Ecstasy • Liszt: Totentanz • Liszt: Prometheus It goes without saying that Franz Liszt merits an eminent spot among the most influential composers of the 19th century. He re-imagined the concerto as a genre, for example in his Totentanz, and dreamed up the idea of the symphonic poem, which later served as a reference for composers of radically diverging styles and outlooks, such as Tchaikovsky, Richard Strauss, Smetana, Rachmaninoff, and even the young Bartók. One of the most unique, exciting and mysterious offshoots of Liszt's thinking, however, belongs to Scriabin. This recording was made at a concert held at Müpa Budapest on 28 September 2017.
HEY, JUNE!
Tátrai Band 3 June 2020, Wednesday, 8.00 pm
Tibor Tátrai – guitar • Charlie Horváth – vocals • Géza Pálvölgyi – keyboard instruments • János Solti – drums • Kornél Horváth – percussion instruments, Péter Glaser – bass guitar • Péter Csiszár – saxophone, keyboard instruments Heni Czerovszky, Vera Vincze-Fekete – backing vocals The members of the Tátrai Band are among Hungary's best known musicians. Founded in 1989, their career achievements include numerous albums and gold discs, as well as familiar songs such as New York, New York and Küszöbön túl. They haven’t played in the Béla Bartók National Concert Hall before, so they will be spicing up their already exciting musical realm with their biggest hits and some special musical treats. This recording was made at a concert held at Müpa Budapest on 17 December 2018.
Schoenberg: Gurrelieder Casa da Música Porto / 4 June 2020, Thursday, 8.00 pm
Featuring: Orquestra Sinfónica do Porto Casa da Música • Coro Casa da Música Conductor: Stefan Blunier
HEY, JUNE!
The Life of Mörk 5 June 2020, Friday / 8.00 pm
Márk Zentai – vocals • Gábor 'Novan' Novai – keyboards • Bálint 'Jason' Szeifert – bass guitar, guitar • Dániel Ferenc Szabó – drums Featuring: János Ávéd – saxophone • Pisti Tóth Jr. – guitar Mörk's music rests on a bed of funk and soul, with an eclectic sound which is completely cutting edge but which, in terms of its content, nonetheless follows in the footsteps of some great performers. The songs on their new album penetrate into the deepest depths of human existence, chewing up the unbreakable threads, spitting them out and then smashing the listener with a well-aimed blow into outer space. In this concert, the band's musical complexity and improvisation style will be further enhanced by guest musicians and a range of visual elements. Chaos is created so that harmony and order can thus emerge. The audience are buying a ticket for an audiovisual roller coaster. This recording was made at a concert held at Müpa Budapest on 18 June 2019.
HEY, JUNE!

This recording was made at a concert held at Müpa Budapest on 20 June 2016.
