Whether we’re talking textiles or literature, “English” is a hallmark of excellence, and the island nation’s music rightfully deserves similar recognition. This is particularly true when it comes to the music of Orpheus Britannicus Henry Purcell, who barely lived 36 years; Edward Elgar, the distinguished gentleman-composer of the Victorian and Edwardian eras; and Benjamin Britten, the brilliant British master of the 20th century. In 2026, they will take centre stage at Müpa Budapest’s traditional concert marathon. Across eleven concerts featuring the leading figures of Hungarian musical life, chamber concerts showcasing students from the Liszt Academy, and various film screenings, this February Sunday offers a representative selection not from one composer’s oeuvre, but from three.
