VC LIVE | The 12 Hour "Day of Listening" Contemporary Music Festival [WATCH NOW]

"The Day of Listening" will stream LIVE here on The Violin Channel for 12 continuous hours on Sunday, November 14 from 5:00 AM (ET)

 

The Concerto Budapest presents "The Day of Listening" — as a part of the 2021 Contemporary Music Festival, in Hungary.

The one-day 12 hour music event focuses on contemporary music, featuring 13 concerts, over 40 works — including 7 world premieres.

Established in 2015, "The Day of Listening" is led by conductor András Keller, and features the artists of the Concerto Budapest.

“Unfortunately, something has gotten lost in the world of classical music concerts in Hungary and all over the world. However, it is hard to put our finger on what it really is,” conductor Andras Keller and Director of the annual new music event recently sat down and told The Violin Channel.

“Perhaps, genuine, really consequential 'events' are missing from our lives. Concerto Budapest strives to expand the horizon of people's perspectives regarding classical music to collect the experiences and insights of the invited artists so that in the long run, we can point in a specific direction and create a shared philosophy,” he said.
