Featuring Frank Peter Zimmermann
Not only is the Staatskapelle Dresden one of the oldest orchestras in the world, it is also among the very best, helmed in recent decades by such conductors as Giuseppe Sinopoli, Bernard Haitink, Fabio Luisi and Christian Thielemann. Accompanying them to Müpa Budapest will be their new artistic director, the dynamic and versatile Daniele Gatti. After kicking off their programme with the atmospheric winter landscape of Ciel d'hiver, by the recently deceased world-famous Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho, they will play two passionate works of Schumann's: his Violin Concerto and Third Symphony. Soloist Frank Peter Zimmermann is one of the most celebrated violin virtuosos of our time.

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.
