Richard Strauss was born in 1864 and died in 1949, his music influenced by the crosswinds of the 19th and 20th centuries. This traditional annual marathon places equal emphasis on famous and less familiar works, great symphonic pieces and concertos, choruses and songs, piano and chamber pieces. The MÁV Symphony Orchestra, the Győr Philharmonic, the Pannon Philharmonic, Concerto Budapest and the Budapest Festival Orchestra all take to the stage. Pianists include Dénes Várjon, János Palojtay, Emese Mali, Dávid Báll and István Lajkó.
