In the ’shadow’ of Tchaikovsky's famous Piano Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor, many people are unaware that the composer wrote two others, which is why it will be interesting to hear the second one, composed in 1879-80. Mahler's Symphony No. 1 was premiered in Budapest, in five movements at the time. Nevertheless, he later removed the second movement from the work, Blumine – a beautiful, romantic flower music that definitely deserves to be heard by the audiences of our time.

Born in 1945 in Tbilisi, the capital of the former Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic, Elisabeth Leonskaya is a living legend. She started playing the piano at the age of seven, and played Beethoven's Piano Concerto in C major with an orchestra at the age of eleven. She has been living, performing and recording in Austria since 1978. The conductor of the evening, Róbert Farkas, has been the orchestra's chief conductor since 2021.

A century ago, the world first encountered this remarkable opus, a work that soon became one of the cornerstones of twentieth-century musical innovation. Premiered in 1926, the singspiel is a milestone in Hungarian music history: its composer, Zoltán Kodály, fulfilled his aspiration to elevate Hungarian folk song of ancient origin to the same status as classical music, by virtue of its equivalent values, placing it on the stage of the nation’s Opera House.
