Beyond Music… A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

Tamás Vásáry plays piano, conducts and talks about music – anyone who has ever attended such an event will know all too well that it is not easy to decide what is the greatest and most elemental experience: the piano performance of this superb and popular artist, his skills wielding the baton or perhaps his personal and instructive insights into music. This time Tamás Vásáry’s musical conversation revolves around the life and work of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Through the production by the artist who speaks so fluently on his chosen topic we see revealed the life of Tchaikovsky so painfully rich in suppression and personal tragedies. Furthermore, we are shown that remarkable musical universe the captivating melodies of which almost bring the listener to the point of forgetting exactly what masterful skill is in action operating the musical structure in each and every work of the composer.
