Budapest Festival Orchestra in triumphant Bartók and Mahler

Jeremy Morris, 26th August

The Budapest Festival Orchestra has played in Edinburgh before to great critical acclaim. Consequently, it was only to be expected that their concert last Sunday would be well attended, despite a late change of soloist. In fact, it was a virtual sell-out and we were not disappointed.
