Trois jours de festivités musicales autour de Budapest ont révélé, pour sa première venue à la Philharmonie de Paris, le jeune chef Gábor Káli, dans un programme entièrement bartókien. À l'honneur ce dimanche : Le Château de Barbe-Bleue.

In a program devoted to Béla Bartók, the visitors from Hungary conveyed both a distinct uniqueness of their heritage as well as a possibility of music as a tool for communication and understanding.

Dance, jazz and Latin rhythms were all present in this programme, which rolled back the years to Rattle's early years. 

Vilde Frang zeigte in der Berliner Phlharmonie ihre ganze leidenschaftliche Ausdruckskraft bei der Interpretation dieses Meisterwerks.

Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra gave a lesson in ethnomusicology as part of the their all-Bartók programme, which culminated in a towering performance of Bluebeard's Castle.

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.
