In the Passions series, well-known artists make a musical confession about the passion that ties them to their particular branch of the arts. They make no secret of their intention to pass on to the children and adults in the audience their passion for a subject matter to which they have a close personal connection.
The purpose of the early music movement is the authentic performance of works created prior to the classical era. György Vashegyi was not even 20 when he first dedicated himself to this task. He has been passionately researching the oft-forgotten music of ancient times and put equal energy into his productions in collaboration with the Orfeo Orchestra and the Purcell Choir, which he himself founded. The highly respected conductor has much to tell the younger generation about this infinitely rich and to many people hidden trove of music that is anything but past its sell-by date.

Between 9.45 and 10.30, we will be running a free playful, interactive session for children entitled Tune-Up. We look forward to welcoming groups and individuals who hold tickets to the subsequent performance.Register via e-mail to csip@mupa.hu, stating the number of participants and their ages, by the Wednesday before the performance at the latest. The activity is recommended for children aged 6 and over, and will take place with a minimum of six children.
