About the Programme

The Pannon Philharmonic is the only „not-from-the-capital” orchestra that has a season ticket series at the Palace of Arts, for more than ten years already. They has been close since the beginning; the Pannon played a subscription concert at the Béla Bartók National Concert hall in a week after the Palace of Arts’s opening and besides that, it is a regular regular guest orchestra of the Symphonic Explorations series. At this concert, you can hear a piano concerto, known like a pop hit, and a symphonic work, unfortunatelly played rarely, based on Byron’s poem with the same titel – both compositions are emblematic works of the Russian Romanticism. Rachmaninov’s piano concerto, finished in 1901, is going to be performed with the solo of a fantastic talent, who won one of the most prestigious music competitions of France, in 2013.

Prior to the concert, at 6.30, there will be a talk show called Előhang (Preludium), where the ticket owners can meet the musicians and the music of the concert programme.

The concert is a Palace of Arts production.
