Season Tickets - 2026
After a hiatus of several years, the Liszt Academy is once again offering season tickets for its own concerts. The titles were inspired by the magnificent Grand Hall: the inscriptions on the skylights—Rhythm, Beauty, Melody, Harmony, and Fantasy—have also become the titles of our season tickets. These words are not merely decorative elements, but the most fundamental concepts of music and aesthetics, which perfectly complement our program offerings.
RHYTHM – ENSEMBLES OF THE LISZT ACADEMY
Rhythm is the most ancient driving force of music—it both holds everything together and propels it forward. The concerts in our season ticket series focus on this energy: the Concert Wind Ensemble offers new rhythms and perspectives at the concert in early October—an ideal choice for those who enjoy the sound of a full orchestra and performances with sweeping momentum. At the end of October, the Symphony Orchestra of the Liszt Academy, conducted by Gábor Takács-Nagy, will showcase the dramatic power of works by Liszt and Beethoven, while in November, under the baton of Róbert Farkas, the rich hues of the Hungarian repertoire will come to life.

MELODY – PIANO IN THE GRAND HALL
A melody is the most immediate expression of music: a sequence of notes that stays with us and becomes a memory that evokes emotions. This season ticket series showcases the diversity of the piano repertoire as interpreted by four outstanding artists: József Balog, Mihály Berecz, Zoltán Fejérvári, and László Borbély, each with a distinct character, yet all revealing memorable worlds of melody. This subscription series is recommended for those who wish to connect with music through the rich and expressive sound of the piano.
