Veranstaltungsort: Pesti Vigadó (Vigadó Concert Hall), Budapest

Vilde Frang leitete das Ensemble vom ersten Pult aus – hochqualifizierte, hochkarätige Individuen der gleichen Generation, vereint im Willen, eine Spitzenleistung zu erbringen.

Bringing his six-year ‘Mini journey’ to Budapest for a Bartok mini-cycle, Joolz Gale delivered a detailed vision of the First Piano Concerto and the Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion. Yet, a blazing performance of Bartók’s concerto for orchestra stole the show.

There aren't many - if any - ensembles who will, in a single concert, perform music ranging from Gregorian chant to contemporary, from England to Armenia. The Hilliard ensemble do so with vocal technique that is distinctive and impressive.
