Budapest is turning 150 this year, and Budapest Festival Orchestra celebrates the occasion with a free concert on the Heroes' Square. As the conductor Iván Fischer puts it, 'To celebrate Budapest’s 50th birthday in 1923, a major concert was staged, and 100 years later, the Budapest Festival Orchestra will continue this tradition with the premiere of the winning submission composed for the occasion. The BFO will also perform Beethoven’s Eroica symphony.'
The concert is free to attend and there is no need for registration.
