Zsombor Tóth-vajna And The Harmonia Caelestis Baroque Orchestra
Buxtehude, Bach And Lübeck Abendmusik
Christmas Organ Concert
Classical Music, Opera, Theatre
Zsombor Tóth-Vajna is an outstandingly talented member of the young Hungarian generation of artists dedicated to the historically informed performance of early music, both as a conductor and a specialist in early keyboard instruments, playing the organ, harpsichord, fortepiano and clavichord. He completed his studies at Budapest's Liszt Academy and the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. For his Christmas organ concert, he invites the audience to join him in the world of Buxtehude, Bach and Lübeck Abendmusik. The programme for the evening features works by Johann Sebastian Bach and Dietrich Buxtehude, whom Bach admired and sought to emulate: these consist of organ compositions and cantatas also featuring the Harmonia Caelestis Baroque Orchestra, the Handel Choir and some outstanding soloists.

Palace of Arts Müpa Budapest
When Müpa Budapest, Hungary and its capital's new cultural hub, opened in 2005, it was built to represent more than 100 years of Hungarian cultural history. As a conglomeration of cultural venues, the building has no precedent in 20th century Hungarian architecture and has no peers in the whole of Central Europe.
The creators of this ambitious project, the Trigránit Development Corporation, prime contractor Arcadom Construction and the Zoboki, Demeter and Partners Architectural Office, were driven by the desire to create a new European cultural citadel as part of the new Millennium City Centre complex along the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Danube waterfront. The result is a facility whose construction quality, appearance, functionality and 21st century technological infrastructure makes it ideally suited to productions of the highest standard. The building is also highly versatile and equipped to host performances of any genre and almost any scale.
