The day after their concert in the Solti Hall (29 October 2017), three members of the Dutch reed quintet deliver a short master class.

We spoke with Salamon Kamp, conductor and member of the Doctoral Council of the university, as well as guitarist József Eötvös, head of the Strings Department, about PhD courses at the Liszt Academy, the interaction between performance art and culture, the hierarchy of instruments, and Bach’s timelessness.

Violinist, countertenor, conductor. Dmitry Sinkovsky is one of the most exciting musicians of our day. Although most at home in the Baroque, he actually plays the entire Classical-Romantic repertoire. Irrespective of period or genre, he performs with astonishing vigour and affirmation of life flowing from his music-making. The audience of the Liszt Academy had the chance to experience for themselves the magic of this artist when he accompanied Julia Leznyeva at the head of his ensemble, La Voce Strumentale, last year. This time we can enjoy him as partner of Aura Musicale, led by Balázs Máté.
