Gyula Szilágyi and the Tenebrae Choir

In the days leading up to Christmas, we tend to particularly enjoy performance set-ups and genres that we associate with the festive season. Each year, the cantatas of the season and - of course - oratorical works that proclaim the joy of the Saviour's birth come to the fore, though organ music and choir compositions are similarly popular.  more

In the days leading up to Christmas, we tend to particularly enjoy performance set-ups and genres that we associate with the festive season. Each year, the cantatas of the season and - of course - oratorical works that proclaim the joy of the Saviour's birth come to the fore, though organ music and choir compositions are similarly popular. During this concert, the audience will be able to enjoy a wide-ranging selection from the repertoires of the latter two genres.

The organist Gyula Szilágyi has had an incredibly rich and varied career. He first earned a degree in mechanical engineering, before becoming involved in music and studying his instrument's craft at the College of Music in Debrecen and then in Amsterdam. He lived in the Netherlands for 14 years, then later gained experience in Portugal and Spain. Next, he became a teacher in the Faculty of Music of the University of Debrecen, while he now also works as an organ restorer. The Tenebrae Choir was founded and is conducted by Nigel Short, a former member of the world-famous King's Singers sextet. The 16-member ensemble employs both male and female singers. Since 2001, they have been performing early music and pieces from the 20th and 21st century: their diverse and colourful repertoire ranges from the 16th century to the modern day. On their website, you will find the words 'passion and precision', and the combination of these two concepts expresses their most important artistic goals. A Times critic, praising Tenebrae's crystal clear sound and the immaculate intonation of the singers, has called Nigel Short's choir 'unbeatable'.

Our offer


A magical meeting of two anniversaries on the Müpa Budapest stage: the Talamba Percussion Group is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year with a 21st-century arrangement of a piano cycle by Mussorgsky's piano cycle Pictures of an Exhibition as it turns 150 itself: following on the heels of Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Isao Tomita with their versions, they are presenting their own take on the 19th-century masterpiece, this one revised for percussion and electronica, and featuring DJ Bootsie.

The Vujicsics Ensemble, which plays South-Slavic music, has maintained the same line-up ever since their formation 50 years ago.

Az ezeregy éjszaka az egyik legismertebb és legcsodálatosabb mese az egész világirodalomban. Páratlanul gazdag és színes történet szerelemről, hűségről, örök emberi értékekről, de ravaszságról, cselvetésekről és gyarlóságról is.
