Their two concerts have an added attraction besides the popular music, because the narrator in Saint-Saëns’s Carnival of the Animals will be none other than former James Bond and “Saint” Sir Roger Moore, himself a UNICEF international ambassador. Th...e concert also connects to the fine art competition, “New Pictures at an Exhibition”, arranged jointly by the National Philharmonic Orchestra and the Ludwig Museum. The winning entries will be on show at the Palace of Arts. This competition was made possible by the contribution of Mari Gömöri Márkus and the sponsorship of the International Business School and the Summa Artium Kht.
