    Now in its seventh edition, the MiraTone Festival and Academy – founded by violinist Miranda Liu – has become one of Central Europe’s most vibrant classical music events. Each year, it brings together internationally acclaimed artists and passionate young musicians in the heart of Budapest.

    The grand closing concert of the 7th MiraTone Festival and Academy invites the audience on a journey of musical transformations – from the elegance of the Baroque to the vibrant contrasts of the 20th century. Each work on the program reveals a different face of musical change: stylistic evolution, adaptation, and emotional resonance.

    We begin with excerpts from Bach’s Goldberg Variations which bring out the polyphonic richness of the original while allowing the performers to engage in a vivid, expressive dialogue – a fitting tribute for the 275th anniversary of Bach’s death.  Next, Haydn’s String Quartet in D minor "Quinten" showcases the composer at the height of his maturity. Its name comes from the ominous falling fifths in the first movement, and its structure combines formal perfection with passionate intensity.  To mark the 70th anniversary of George Enescu’s passing, the first half concludes with two works by the Romanian master: the Romanian Rhapsody in a rarely heard transcription for two clarinets bursts with dance energy and national color, while the Aria and Scherzino reveals his refined, French-influenced lyricism.

    After the intermission, we hear Beethoven in miniature: the Bagatelle in B-flat major, Op. 119/11, arranged for strings. From here we move into the 21st century with Penderecki’s Duo Concertante, a compact but striking work where violin and double bass explore contrasting moods with intimacy and wit.  The evening culminates in Béla Bartók’s Piano Quintet, BB 33 – a masterpiece from the composer’s early period, rich with drama, folk-inspired vitality, and virtuosic interplay. It is a fitting final gesture to a festival that celebrates chamber music not only as tradition, but as vibrant, living expression.
