Organ Concert in St. Stephen's Basilica with Miklós Teleki
Budapest, St. Stephen's Basilica — Main Hall
About the Event
St. Stephen's Basilica is one of the most impressive buildings in Budapest and a popular location for classical concerts. Discover the spectacular sound of the church's organ in a performance featuring award‐winning organist Miklos Teleki.
Prize‐winning singer Kolos Kováts is the vocal soloist and the accomplished flute player Eleonóra Krusic completes the ensemble. Together, the artists play highlights of the classical music repertoire.
About the Venue
The third largest church in Budapest, the magnifcent St. Stephen´s Basilica is devoted to Hungary´s first king, St Stephen I, whose 'incorruptible' mummified right hand is kept in the Basilica´s vault. Construction started in 1851 and ended 54 years later, presenting the public with a beautiful Neoclassical church. The interior is modest yet beautiful, decorated with colorful mosaics. A trip up the dome to contemplate the charming view of the city is highly recommended.
The Basilica has always played an important role in the musical life of Budapest. In the 20th century it was a key venue for choral concerts, and both contemporary and classical music. The Basilica houses an enormous organ, played at regular Monday concerts, and the Basilica's choir performs across Europe.

Es war ein sehr schönes Konzert. Der St. Stephansdom bietet eine wunderbare Akustik, auch im hinteren Bereich. Die Musiker waren gut und die Auswahl der Stücke ebenfalls. Ein sehr schönes Erlebnis, jederzeit wieder.

Moment magique ! La basilique dans laquelle ce joue le concert est magnifique ! Excellente accoustique ! Enorme coup de coeur pour ma part à la Soprano Zsuzsanna Skoff, au Ténor Xavier Rivadeneira ! Les musiciens jouaient parfaitement ! Tout était en harmonie ! Une inoubliable soirée à Vienne !

The performans and the atmosphere inside the Basilica was great. The only problem was it was so uncomfortably cold that if the concert lasted a little longer we would probably freeze. It took us a while to get warm again.

On other sites, the tickets were sold out. I bought them on this site and I am thankful because the performance was amazing. Professional and passionate musicians, in such a beautiful Church. Very emotional. Breathtaking. I loved it and I would go back again if I could. It is a must to highlight your trip to Budapest.

The atmosphere was amazing. That church was the most beautiful church I have ever seen. Solists and the musicians were perfect. The program was nbelievable. I strictly recommend the St. Stephane Basilica Concert to whom anyone visit in Budapest. The concert was the most impressive thing I did. I supposed that this must be the first thing that should be done in Budapest if available. Enjoy

大聖堂の壁面には始まる前にプロジェクションマッピングが現れ、近辺にはクリスマスマーケットが開催されていて、とても感激しました。勿論、大聖堂の中でのコンサートも最高でした。ただ、尋常ではない寒さだったのでドレスコードもないし完全防寒で臨むべきでした。

Nov 2018
音響の良い荘厳な教会での、しっかりしたプロによる演奏でした。ソプラノの出番は3曲でしたがもう少しあるとさらに良かったかと感じました。70分程でポピュラーなクラッシック曲を予定通り演奏して、あっさりとした終わり方・・クラッシック音楽のホールコンサートではアンコールがたいがいありますので、ちょっと区切って最後の数曲はアンコール部分としたらもう少し盛り上がったかと思いました。この2日前に聖マーチャーシュ教会での同オーケストラの演奏を聴く機会があり、歌は無くて数人のメンバーが変わっていましたが、やはり立派な教会の良い音響のもとで、しっかりした演奏を楽しみました。

The performance was excellent. Each piece was well rehearsed, authoritatively and sensitively rendered. The only problem was that from the Sud Empore the sound was a little distant and it seemed the venue was too large for a 12 pie e orchestra.

Die Kombination aus dem pathosgeladenen und historisch so interessanten Revolutionsfilm einerseits und der Orgelmusik und dem gewaltigen wilhelminischen Kirchenraum war sehr reizvoll und auf eigenartige Weise passend. Einziger technischer Minuspunkt: Von meinem Sitzplatz — etwa hinten in der Mitte — konnte man wegen der vor mir Sitzenden die Untertitel nur schwer sehen.

年末にベルリンドームで地元の方々と同席してクラシックを楽しめたのはとても嬉しかったです。 指揮、演奏の評価は好みによって左右されてくると思います。 なかなかに熱のこもった立派な演奏ではありました。 建物の構造によるのか、音の歯切れがあと一歩よいといいなぁと思ったりしましたが、まあ好みの問題でしょうか。 会場は拍手喝采でした(^^)。
