After last year’s success, the world’s largest
interactive music box
,
Müpa Melody Wheel
will be available again
between noon and 8pm everyday
from May 28 to June 5 so anyone can try out what’s it like to make the giant “treadwheel” play some music.
In addition to music heard last year, the repertoire has been extended, and now includes the most popular tune from the Müpa Budapest Sound Machine online music editing application. Visitors can also choose the "Ride of the Valkyries" from
Wagner’s Ring
, and Nino Rota’s music composed for Fellini’s Oscar-winning movie,
8 1/2
. The most popular songs from last year - Ferenc Liszt’s "Hungarian Rhapsody no. 2.", a hit song by the band called
Halott Pénz
, and music from the films
Vuk
and the
Harry Potter series -
are still available to play.
From May 28, with the help of a smartphone, anyone will be able to relive the experience either on the spot or at home, using the BlippAR application (Android / iOS).
All you need to do is find the Müpa Budapest Melody Wheel logo, open the application to scan it with your phone’s camera, and the game can start. You will be able to play the original songs of Müpa Budapest Melody Wheel anywhere and anytime, and on top of that, you can compete with others based on your score.
