12th St. Gellért Festival Presented by Liszt Academy

This year, the Szeged-Csanád Diocese is organizing the 12th St. Gellért Festival in connection with the feast day of martyr St. Gellért, the first bishop of the diocese. During the series of concerts (21-30 September 2019), there are performances of works that serve to further enrich the already progressive music life of Szeged and that rate as genuine classical music rarities. The well-established festival promises to be an artistic, cultural and musical experience also for the new generation of music lovers. The founders consider it their mission to support young Hungarian talent, which is why youthful artists debut on stage not only as part of the Orchestra of St. Gellért Academy but in solo roles, too. During the festival, the Orchestra of St. Gellért Academy present themselves to a Budapest audience at the Liszt Academy. Music fans can be a part of the musical meeting of Hungary and South Korea on the ‘cultural pilgrimage’.
