Boedapest
Deze trotse, unieke vereniging van twee grote steden aan de overkant van een prachtig heldere rivier is een van de belangrijkste van de vele schatten van Oost-Europa. Boedapest, dat door de eeuwen heen in de literatuur is opgenomen, heeft vele briljante Hongaarse componisten - Bartók, Ligeti en Kurtág, om er maar een paar te noemen - ontvangen tijdens hun studie aan de grote muziekacademie die Franz (Ferenc) Liszt heeft gedoopt. Met letterlijk tientallen theaters biedt Boedapest elke dag en avond een verbluffend aanbod aan cultureel entertainment. Het zou ondenkbaar zijn om Boedapest te ervaren zonder de ziel en de zintuigen te trakteren op een concert van klezmer, klassieke of volksmuziek - of het nu in een lichtgevend paleis, een futuristisch theater of in een van de mooiste operahuizen ter wereld is.
