Organ Duel - In memory of Sweelinck
Sietze de Vries and László Fassang
- Bridging Europe: Budapest-Amsterdam
Ticket prices
The practise of holding public competitions between renowned musicians has a significant historical past - and the organ duels at Müpa Budapest now have many years of tradition behind them as well. However, in contrast to the musical face-offs of the Baroque, Classical and Romantic eras, the aim in these more recent matches is not to achieve victory, but rather for the entrants to present their knowledge in the most versatile way possible, and of course to keep the audience wonderfully entertained. On this evening, the outstanding Dutch organist Sietze de Vries and his Hungarian counterpart László Fassang will also provide some insight into the improvisational technique of Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, who worked in Amsterdam around the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries.
The Bridging Europe Festival is sponsored by the Embassy of the Netherlands.
