Ten years after the last similar marathon and on occasion of the 340th anniversary of the composer’s birth, Müpa Budapest is once again hosting a 24-hour “Bach shift” from 9 pm on 2 May to 9 pm on 3 May, during the course of which all of Johann Sebastian’s organ works will be performed by musicians young and old, and from Hungary and abroad, on the world-famous instrument in the Béla Bartók National Concert Hall.
The daytime programmes of the concert series begin at 10 am and will see no fewer that 16 talented teenagers introducing themselves in the course of its first chapter. They will be followed by István Ella, Zita Nauratyill, Jan Liebermann and Mónika Kecskés taking turns at the keyboards. The audiences of the daytime concerts is sure to encounter a breathtaking diversity of sounds and genres.
