With organist Alex Robson
The Choir of St John's College, Cambridge is an old acquaintance of ours, having already given two acclaimed Christmas concerts here at Müpa Budapest. Since 2023, the ensemble has been led by choirmaster Christopher Gray. Founded in 1670, the globe-trotting choir is one of the finest of its kind in the world, praised by critics for its rich, warm sound and stylistic versatility. In addition to its extensive concert tours, the choir also sings at services in St John's College Chapel. Their repertoire spans about five hundred years. Featured at the concert will be Alex Robson, the organist of both the choir and St John's College Chapel.

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.
