The members of any orchestra feel most confident playing under the batons of conductors who know from personal experience the ins and outs of performing instrumental music. And this is exactly the extra bit of expertise possessed by the German horn player-turned-conductor Sebastian Weigle, who also earned the respect of the audience at the Béla Bartók National Concert Hall when he took on Rienzi in 2017 and Ein deutsches Requiem in 2020 at the venue. Now he returns to rejoin his collaborator for those memorable concerts, the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra. On this evening, Müpa Budapest’s resident ensemble will first accompany Dezső Ránki in performing Brahms’s grand B-flat major piano concerto. It will then play Liszt’s Faust Symphony, which is rich with the ideas of Goethe, together with the superb Romanian tenor Ștefan Pop, a discovery from the Operalia opera competition, and the Hungarian National Male Choir.
