Christmas Organ Concert: Monika Melcová and the choirs of the Zoltán Kodály Hungarian Choral School
- Christmas Organ Concert
Ticket prices
Each year before Christmas, Müpa Budapest presents an organ concert and choral performance where the exalted sound of the organ combine with seasonal choral pieces to help the audience capture the spirit of the holiday season. At this year's concert, three choirs will be joining the 'queen of instruments' in celebration.
The story of the Zoltán Kodály Hungarian Choral School began 30 years ago in 1988, when the school was founded by choirmaster and educator Ferenc Sapszon Jr. According to its website, the institution 'seeks to implement the national education principles of Kodály, because musical education plays an important role in education as a whole. The 12-grade institution, accredited in Budapest and Pest County, is a unity of primary school, high school, music academy and musical arts vocational training all in one.' [...] 'It was evident upon fully considering Kodály's principles and intentions that a choral school had to be established, a school based on Western European cathedral choir schools that would continue the Hungarian traditions of Kodály.' Three choirs will represent the school in this Christmas concert conducted by the institution's choral instructors Rita Domány, Borbála Sapszon and Márton Tóth.
The concert will be preceded from 6.30 pm by a conversation entitled Prelude, where ticket holders will be invited to get to know the performing musician and the works to be performed more closely.
