Vikingur Ólafsson's forthcoming new album intermingles childhood memories and a celebration of his hero, 96-year-old Hungarian composer and pianist György Kurtág.

Composer Árpád Balázs celebrates his 85th birthday. To commemorate this occasion, a two-volume selection of his choral works has been published, comprising his rich output of this genre from the last six decades.

In 2023, Hungarian music life will commemorate the 80th anniversary of the birth of Zoltán Jeney (1943–2019). Prior to the anniversary, UMP Editio Musica Budapest has now published the scores of three significant works for orchestra and chamber ensemble, with the support of the National Cultural Fund.

Composer György Orbán turns 75. On this occasion UMP Editio Musica Budapest has published his 'Razumovsky Trilogy' for string orchestra.

At the end of April, György Kurtág’s Beckett opera Fin de partie will be premiered in Paris. Conductor Markus Stenz, who recently visited Kurtág in Budapest, talks about this masterpiece before the Paris performances.

Blue, a new orchestral composition by Balázs Kecskés D., is premiered in Concertgebouw, Amsterdam.

Danubia Orchestra Óbuda has commissioned three Hungarian composers to honour Bach’s The Art of Fugue with their music. The premiere takes place on January 30 at the Academy of Music, Budapest under the direction of Benjamin Bayl.

Premiere of the new version of Gyula Csapó's Viola Concerto was held in Budapest on January 15, 2022.
