cThis year, the Dunakanyar Contemporary Music Forum will be held for the fourth time, with the aim of bringing today’s classical music to the agglomeration around the Danube Bend. The Budapest concert will feature contemporary and renaissance works on brass and percussion instruments, in a concert hall formation that was already used by the British trumpeter Philip Jones in the legendary brass ensemble he founded. The first part of the programme will feature the Hungarian premiere of Bence Kutrik’s Anselmus. The piece was commissioned by the Deutsches Nationaltheater und Staatskapelle Weimar (DNT) and had its premiere in Weimar on 13 June 2025. The composition is an audio play: the music is based around a narrative text performed by actor János Szemenyei. The story and the text were written by Szabolcs Hujber, based on the short story The Golden Pot by E. T. A. Hoffmann. The second part of the concert will feature movements from the Renaissance composer Susato Tielman’s collection Danserye, arranged by Belgian trombonist Geert De Vos, as well as works by four contemporary composers. These include the premiere of compositions written for the occasion by Péter Furák and Péter Zombola.
