The Hungarian folk tradition has inspired composers from Haydn and Schubert to the present day. Two great Hungarian composers, Bela Bartok and Zoltan Kodaly, collected hundreds of folk tunes over several years and wove them into their own music.
The works in this programme reflect the stunning diversity and dynamism of this ancient musical culture.
Musicians include brilliant featured festival artists Abigel Kralik, Gareth Lubbe, Elmore Quartet and Artistic Director Adrian Brendel.
