Still Two in One – Recital of Bea Palya Urania National Film Theatre, 7 PM 1088 Budapest, Rákóczi út 21. Ticket price: HUF 4,300 and HUF 6,200
Concert of the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra
Performers: András Dés – percussion Dávid Lamm – guitar
Dohány Street Synagogue, 7 PM 1074 Budapest, Dohány u.2–6. Ticket price: HUF 6,500 and HUF 4,300 Guests: Yoav Levanon (Israel), Ágnes Pusker and Júlia Pusker János Rolla and the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra have been considered the best in their field for decades. The formation is extremely popular today as well, and their concert will showcase exceptionally talented young artists. Yoav Levanon, the only eight-year-old Israeli piano progeny started learning playing the piano at the age of three and gave concerts at the Carnegie Hall in New York when he was only seven. He joined the Israel Chamber Orchestra for his first public concert. According to critics, he is the “Mozart of the 21st century”, the “next Barenboim”. The audience will hear Haydn’s D-minor piano concert on the occasion of his first concert held in Budapest. Due to the documentary film titled “Invisible strings: The talented Pusker sisters” the Pusker sisters became known all over the world.

“When this title came to my mind I was giggling inside thinking how much innuendo it contains. This is the last time I perform on stage together with my unborn child. Then I realized that a good play on words often makes you understand the essentials. This is true in this case as well. In addition to my own songs I have picked music I have always loved: songs by Noa, Yasmin Levi, Dulce Pontes, some film music (Life is beautiful, Vengo), beautiful songs of Anatolia and South-America, Fado and of course Sephardic songs. Magnificent and delightful songs that match the concept of new lives...” /Bea Palya/

The Voice of the Prophets – Recital of Gábor Birta Wallenberg Memorial Evening Frankel Synagogue, 7 PM 1023 Budapest, Frankel Leó u. 49. Ticket price: HUF 1,900 Performers: László Fekete and Gergely Nógrádi For Jewish people Wallenberg means the embodiment of survival, escape and moral victory. His virtues and his exceptional personality place him among the eternal heroes, just like the prophets of the Old Testament. ‘The voice of the Prophets’ visualizes Wallenberg’s stages not only in music but on the large screen as well, thus all of us can come to an understanding that a pure character is not the matter of historical age, but that of the personal trial of strength and conviction. The same program can be heard on September 3, Sunday, at the Synagogue in Debrecen. Ticket price: HUF 1,000
August 27, 2012 (Monday)

In the Land of Israel – Concert of The Göncölszekér Ensemble Rumbach Street Synagogue, 7:30 PM 1075 Budapest, Rumbach Sebestyén u.3. Ticket price: HUF 3,200
The Habrera Hativeet is one of the most original Israeli bands. Their music is a special mixture of African Sephardic music and Eastern traditional music. Shlomo Bar instruments and composes most of their songs himself, plays the drum and flute, with a voice that comes from somewhere deep within his soul.
Hungarian language performance ! Poems of Nelly Sachs, Paul Celan and Oszip Mandelstam set to music Three significant European poets, three artists of Jewish origin: their history and lifework may be associated from several aspects. What ways may lead towards the heavens? Is prayer still possible? May we step on the ladder of homesickness? Is there a key opening the house of silence? Can the night be healed? The songs of this evening span from the traumatized existence of the Jews and from a broader perspective the man of the 20th and 21st Centuries and the grieving following the Holocaust, towards a fresh start and the chance to continue.

Mariann Falusi – Ulpius Song Theatre, or what is Antal worth if he is Szerb Urania National Film Theatre, 7 PM 1088 Budapest, Rákóczi út 21. Ticket price: HUF 4,300 and HUF 6,200 Hungarian language performance! Performers: Dénes Száraz (actor), Péter Sárik, Tamás Berdisz, György Frey, Balázs Cserta, Zoltán Schneider Editor: Miklós Fáy “It is hard to imagine that the book entitled A History of Hungarian Literature was once forbidden. It is hard to imagine that Antal Szerb was beaten to death by his compatriots with the butt of a rifle. It is hard to imagine that he left behind such a huge lifework even if he did not reach the age of 44. It is hard to imagine that Antal Szerb once said about himself: I am not a litterateur, but a writer who wrote about literature for a while. Now we are following his footsteps with the help of songs. We sing what he heard or what we hear when we read his books and the stories of his life. It is impossible to understand what happened to him, but we do not want to do so anyway” – say the evening performers.

By evoking the feelings and faces of ancient and distant worlds, it creates a new and modern musical formation.

Mariann Falusi – Ulpius Song Theatre, or what is Antal worth if he is Szerb Urania National Film Theatre, 7 PM 1088 Budapest, Rákóczi út 21.

Performers: Dénes Száraz (actor), Péter Sárik, Tamás Berdisz, György Frey, Balázs Cserta, Zoltán Schneider Editor: Miklós Fáy “It is hard to imagine that the book entitled A History of Hungarian Literature was once forbidden. It is hard to imagine that Antal Szerb was beaten to death by his compatriots with the butt of a rifle. It is hard to imagine that he left behind such a huge lifework even if he did not reach the age of 44. It is hard to imagine that Antal Szerb once said about himself: I am not a litterateur, but a writer who wrote about literature for a while. Now we are following his footsteps with the help of songs. We sing what he heard or what we hear when we read his books and the stories of his life. It is impossible to understand what happened to him, but we do not want to do so anyway” – say the evening performers.

BBB added frequent collaborator Tomer Yosef as a frontman – his wild onstage energy galvanizing audiences ever since.
Star guest: Eszter Bíró The performance of one of the most popular klezmer bands in Europe at the final eve of the event series is a celebrated tradition of the Jewish Summer Festival.
