My Friend, Freddie - Rudi Dolezal's evening
Szervezés:
The language of the event is English.
The reading will be in English, with Hungarian subtitles.
This program is connected to the new temporary exhibition opening in the House of Music in spring 2026, the exhibition titled Freddie, paying tribute to Queen’s frontman, Freddie Mercury, in which Freddie’s favorite video director, Rudi Dolezal, remembers his friend, perhaps the world’s most famous frontman, in the framework of a multimedia reading evening. We can learn even more details about their relationship, which he processed in his book titled My Friend, Freddie, and get even closer to the main character of the exhibition.
During the evening we will see never-before-seen photos, unpublished videos and background stories about Freddie’s favorite director. Rudi, the twice Grammy-nominated director, made 32 Queen videos, as well as most of Queen Productions’ international documentaries (“Magic Years”, “The Queen Phenomenon”, “Rare Live”, “Freddie Mercury – The Untold Story”), and also the very last interview Freddie ever gave in front of a camera – Freddie chose Rudi’s camera. At the end of the program, Rudi will hold a Q&A session and a book signing.
Besides Queen, Rudi Dolezal has worked with numerous world stars:
The Rolling Stones, Bono/U2, Miles Davis, Quincy Jones, Whitney Houston, Billy Joel, Norah Jones, Bruce Springsteen, Tracy Chapman, Paulina Rubio, Bon Jovi, David Bowie, Lionel Richie, Blur, Oasis, System of a Down, Sarah Brightman, Jewel, Genesis, Elton John, N’Sync, Boyz II Men, José Carreras, George Michael, Garth Brooks, Liza Minnelli, Annie Lennox, Blondie, Wolfmother, Run DMC, The Strokes, Roxy Music, The Who, Dionne Warwick, Youssou N´Dour, Frank Zappa, Metallica.
