GLAGOLOTIC MASS Pászti season ticket 1
Dvořák, Bruckner, Janáček – creative artists from the turn of the 20th century. One symphonic piece permeated with love of homeland and two works of church music. Thix concert provides an opportunity for the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra to take the stage alongside the Hungarian National Choir, and conductor János Kovács is not only at home in any genre, but is a particularly skilled interpreter of vocal music thanks to his vast operatic experience.
The subject of František Ferdinand’s play Šamberk is the Czech dramatist Josef Kajetán Tyl, who penned the words to the country’s national anthem. Dvořák wrote the incidental music for it in 1881/82 – of which the My Homeland overture comprises a part. Although Wagner’s disciple Anton Bruckner was a composer of symphonies, he also composed liturgical works, the most successful of which was his Te Deum (from 1885). With its unique sound and harmonic world, Janáček’s Glagolitic (Old Slavic) Mass from 1926 is considered an apotheosis of the idea of Pan-Slavism.
Polina Pasztircsák, Atala Schöck, Attila Fekete and István Kovács are top singers who are highly acclaimed both in Hungary and abroad, and who often perform on the concert stage in addition to their operatic triumphs. Born in 1951, János Kovács is one of the most frequently engaged conductors in Hungary. He studied at Budapest’s Liszt Academy under András Kórodi. He has long been connected to both the Hungarian State Opera and the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra in many ways. His collaboration with the Hungarian National Philharmonic has also been a fruitful one for many decades.

Our offer
The guest appearance of the world-famous American maestro Lawrence Foster, who represents the senior age group of the international community of composers, promises to be among the outstanding events of the season. The musician with Romanian parents has conducted the Hungarian National Philharmonic on several occasions and each visit has attracted an enthusiastic response.
A French evening in the spirit of refinement, colours, moods – and pathos. The Debussy work, L’Après-midi d’un Faune, heralds the birth of impressionism and the two Saint-Saëns compositions, the Cello Concerto in A minor and the hugely popular Organ Symphony, represent romanticism – the latter of which is heavily influenced by Liszt. It is not just the composers who are French: so are the conductor and the soloist.
Concert-format opera performance in three acts, with one intermission, in Russian
