Amongst schoolchildren there are those destined for maths, there are those good at Hungarian, there are born geographers and historians. Of course, the various subcultures are not totally isolated from one another, and the pathway is especially free between them if we are talking about music. The fact is that music has a linkage to everything: is reveals as much about maths as it does about literature, geography or sport. The youth series of the Liszt Academy, that is, the concert in the Chamber Hall arranged in the framework of the Liszt Kidz Academy, first examines music’s most important fellow science, mathematics. What sort of ratios does music operate to? How can the architectural solution to Florence Cathedral be displayed in music? What mathematical riddles are locked in certain works of music and how can we break their codes? This concert for 10-15-year-old students seeks answers to these and similar questions. Péter Mészáros, hugely talented both as a teacher and conductor, will conduct and narrate, leading his own chorus, Discantus Vocal Ensemble, winners of numerous international competitions.
