The young American organist Bryan Anderson took the grand prize at the 2023 Longwood Gardens International Organ Competition in Pennsylvania. "Brilliant” and "first class”: these are some of the superlatives critics have used to praise his playing. Employed as the music director at Saint Thomas' Episcopal Church in Houston, Texas, he also finds time to perform extensively as a pianist, harpsichordist and chamber musician. He is a true wizard when it comes to crafting and performing transcriptions, one for whom no technical obstacles exist: in his hands, the organ sounds like an entire orchestra. Now we can admire his magical colours in an equally polychromatic repertoire ranging from popular opera passages to film music.
Program and cast
Palace of Arts Müpa Budapest
When Müpa Budapest, Hungary and its capital's new cultural hub, opened in 2005, it was built to represent more than 100 years of Hungarian cultural history. As a conglomeration of cultural venues, the building has no precedent in 20th century Hungarian architecture and has no peers in the whole of Central Europe.
The creators of this ambitious project, the Trigránit Development Corporation, prime contractor Arcadom Construction and the Zoboki, Demeter and Partners Architectural Office, were driven by the desire to create a new European cultural citadel as part of the new Millennium City Centre complex along the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Danube waterfront. The result is a facility whose construction quality, appearance, functionality and 21st century technological infrastructure makes it ideally suited to productions of the highest standard. The building is also highly versatile and equipped to host performances of any genre and almost any scale.
