...a country (Hungary) whose population, even today, is barely over ten million has produced so many musicians and so much outstanding music. I am grateful for having been born and trained there.

Chamber orchestra of the Liszt Academy 2nd and 3rd year Bachelor Students
Conductor: Gergely Ménesi

The Liszt Academy functions as both university and concert centre, and these two profiles mutually reinforce each other: students can take part in study projects that end up being enjoyed by the general public. The institution prepares students not only for a soloist career but orchestral work, too, so in teaching a key role goes to symphony and chamber orchestra projects. For a few years now, first-year students pursue string orchestra courses; this is their concert. Professors of both the Chamber Music Department and Music Theory Department took part in the training, arming the youthful musicians with practical and theoretical knowledge. Conductor for this recital is Lajtha Prize laureate Gergely Ménesi, who has headed the university symphony ensemble since 2013.
