Christmas Chamber Concert of the
Danube Chamber Orchestra
Spend the Christmas evening
with our chamber concert organised in the beautiful neobaroque theatre
of the Danube Palace. You can listen to a special programme which was
compiled just for this evening by the Danube Chamber Orchestra,
including well-known and popular works of famous composers.
The Chamber Concert
starts at 20:00, and it is
twice 40-45 minutes with an intermission.
The
Danube Symphony Orchestra was formed in 1961. Since then they have
given many performances both in Hungary and abroad. The Chamber Orchestra
consists of 20
professional musicians.
Their
repertoire covers almost every musical style from the Baroque
music to music of the 20th century. Their permanent
concert hall is the theatre of the Danube
Palace, Budapest (Duna Palota;
Zrínyi street 5.) Apart from the concerts they organize both
for adults and children, they regularly play at various
musical events held in Budapest. They are frequent
guests at the Music Academy, at the Vigadó,
at the Stephanie Palace and at the Convention
Centre.
They have had international contacts
since 1983 and have
been invited to play in many foreign countries. They have often
accompanied solo artists at music competitions and participated in
colourful operettas, ballets and oratorio performances as well.
Not only do the musicians work
together in this orchestra but in several chamber
orchestras as well. Besides their permanent conductor András
Deák,
they are often conducted by other Hungarian and foreign conductors.
Many Hungarian and foreign guest artists have performed with the
orchestra, including Giuseppe di Stefano from Italy, James Galway, a flautist from
Ireland and Ray Charles, the jazz star
from the USA. They have given performances in Germany, France, Switzerland,
the Netherlands and Italy.
