Zsolt Máté Mészáros (organ)

Zsolt Máté Mészáros graduated with honors as an organist from the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music in 2018 and is currently pursuing doctoral studies there. As the music director of the Budapest Inner-City Mother Church of Our Lady of the Assumption, he is one of Hungary’s most successful organists, recognized with awards such as the Junior Prima Prize. His concert begins with one of Bach’s “classics”. However, since one of his main artistic goals is to promote Hungarian musical culture, his solo recital will include original works by Dohnányi and Dezső Antalffy-Zsiross, as well as his own transcriptions of Bartók and Dohnányi, and a composition paying tribute to Zoltán Kodály. Zsolt Máté Mészáros is also a renowned Liszt scholar, which explains why about half of his organ recital consists of original compositions and transcriptions by Liszt
