David Fray and the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

The minor D dominates the March concert by the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra now moving into their second half century. The programme runs from Johann Sebastian Bach to the work composed by Felix Mendelssohn at the age of 18. “We are seeking new stars with whom we find something in common,” was how Artistic Director János Rolla of the ensemble put it in an interview, and in place of the great and popular soloist partners who have departed such talented musicians as David Fray immediately take their place. Born in 1981, this French pianist star has a long line of competition wins behind him, and now it is the turn of a Budapest audience to experience his piano skills. His performance takes place in the Grand Hall of the Liszt Academy, in the company of the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra, the pride both of the academy and Hungarian music life, when he performs the principal parts in two piano concertos.
