Please allow me that, apart from my regrettable ignorance of the Hungarian language, I remain Magyar in my heart and soul from birth to the grave. As a consequence, I earnestly wish to further the progress of Hungarian music.

The concerts that have come about under the expert guidance of programme director Péter Nagy feature a handpicked selection of the vast song and song arrangement repertoire. The first evening comprises lieder in the German language and arrangements of German songs plus piano pieces by Liszt (who was brilliant in this area as well) and modern, contemporary keyboard paraphrases.
