A special programme entitled “ The conga player” awaits those interested in music and theatre on Wednesday the 26th of June from 19:00 at the Desz24 club on Batthyány Street.  Krisztián Budai, an excellent musician from Debrecen and his solo performance is half theatre, half music, a "one-man show". As Krisztián Budai writes about his performance: "A little bit of music, including percussion instrumental music, a little bit of theatre, a little bit of life, a slice of myself, of my life. A one-man show, I call it a life story. Questions, reflections on life, self-reflections, problem posing, and maybe some answers or just more questions. In the process of writing, it became clear to me that it would not be enough to put in generalities, without my own tastes, my own insights, or even my own lived experiences, this whole fabric would not work. Through the questions, problems and stories we can learn about ourselves, our own lives or our patterns. So if you come, you are guaranteed to get a big dose of percussion music, a big dose of the percussionists' lives, and a big dose of me and my stories". The event is free, but a supporter […]

The concert of the Trio Consort string trio in the Partium House will take the audience back to the 19th century on the 4th of July from 6.00 p.m. at Partium House. The music of the Austrian-Hungarian Monarchy represents the flourishing musical life of 19th century Hungary which  offered a rich and varied range of styles and genres, including opera, operetta, symphony and chamber music. The period was characterised by musical styles combining Romantic and Classical elements, with works full of deep emotion and spiritual richness, with themes of love, loss, passion and patriotism, while also reflecting the social and political events of the time. The music of the Monarchy was characterised by a close link between musical culture and political power. Musicologists and composers were highly respected, often enjoying the support of the elite due to their special status, and were present at coronation ceremonies, military parades and court balls. Music was therefore not just a means of musical expression, but an important element of history and identity itself, which continues to inspire and enrich Europe's cultural heritage today. The Trio Consort String Trio concert in Debrecen is a reminder of these times.  Programme: Ede Poldini: Palotás (solemn, slow […]

Close to the city centre, in a small street, there is a beautiful garden. You might not realise how beautiful it is when you pass its fence, but when you enter the gate, you feel like you're in a Mediterranean world. The venue for special concerts will be the beautiful Debrecen garden, where there are also hundred-year-old trees. The garden is part of the world of an artist, Ferenc Uzonyi from Debrecen. A painter who is passionate about nature, and who says it is a great experience to see the beauty bursting out of the buds in spring, and then the world shows a different, but always magical face every season.  “I've had events in my garden before, musical events and now I want to make them a regular feature in the summer.My idea is to organise a series called “Bagolyvár” (Owl Castle)Musical Evenings. You could say they'll be secret concerts, and those who come will be able to admire the garden, have a musical experience and meet other people interested in culture and art,” painter Ferenc Uzonyi said. The origin of the title is that there is a tower in the garden, which is almost invisible from the street, […]
