We would like to inform our audience that according to the government decision effective from 11 November 2020, no public events can be held, so we are unable to hold concerts at the Liszt Academy with an audience. However, our audience will not be left without a concert experience, as most of our performances will be held and broadcast online in our Digital Concert Hall, and most of the concerts of the orchestras organizing concert series at the Liszt Academy will also be available online.

Keyboard students of the Doctoral School
Performance artists at the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music may work towards the award of a doctorate, the so-called DLA (Doctor of Liberal Arts). For this recital, it is the turn of keyboard students of the Liszt Academy Doctoral School to take to the stage of the Sir Georg Solti Chamber Hall, when they perform various preludes from music literature. But what is a prelude? In a nutshell, it is a short piece of music. In the Baroque period preludes preceded longer series of movements, while in Romanticism the prelude became a character piece in its own right. Bach wrote several of these series and this concert features his Six Little Preludes. Naturally, two other giants of the genre in Chopin and Debussy could not be omitted: both composed two volumes of preludes, each with unusual poetic titles. Also included are three lesser-known series: preludes by the American Gershwin, the Russian Scriabin, and the Catalan-Spaniard Federico Mompou.
