The crown jewel of the House of Music's Creative Sound Space, which opened in 2022, is an experimental organ that can truly be called a Hungarian treasure. Dániel Váczi developed the concept for the installation largely based on ideas that György Ligeti had already envisioned for the organ of the future in the 1960s.
This programme is held in Hungarian.
In addition to the popular Hangadó performances, Árpád Tóth, a singing and music teacher known for his accessible lectures, is launching a new series.
The series, entitled Under the Magnifying Glass, is aimed at those who like to delve deeper into the works: the usual 90-minute interactive lectures detail a lesser-known, great piece in many aspects, while the accessible analysis is complemented by the participation of a young, professional vocal ensemble, Capella Columbae.
This programme is held in Hungarian.

The concerts of our Tuned to Piano program series can easily captivate those who are still far from the world of romantic piano literature, while they also hold new experiences for those who come to the House of Music Hungary as black-belt classical music fans.
Those of us who still remember how we used to listen to music back when Little Richard sang from shiny black vinyl discs also know what playing records gave music fans: time dedicated to listening to the music with deep absorption, printed lyrics to browse and memorable album covers. And there was even more, because the medium itself influenced the songwriting: the very designation of sides A and B of singles raised the question of the priority and order of the songs, which brought with it the genesis and application of the musical or ideological concept that served as the organising principle behind the entire album.
Ramazuri – Music from A to Z, for both children and adults, from concerts to workshops – is a monthly series of events which aims to provide entertainment for the whole family.
Take a look around the indoor spaces of the House of Music Hungary with an expert music teacher as your guide! The best thing about our building tour is that it is not just about architecture, but also the music created and performed in the spaces! Why? Who for? How?
SOUNDING WALKS are thematic guided events - in the permanent exhibition space - that can be visited in series, but can also be a complete event on its own. Music teacher Dóra Tápai, the lecturer of the successful Hangadó Senior music history series, will guide those interested through the halls of the exhibition according to the given topics. What we see and hear, and what is still behind it! Interesting facts, entertaining educational in an hour, after which visitors can enjoy the exhibition on their own.
As part of the Fringe program launched to support the mission of the House of Music – with calls announced in three categories – we are giving an opportunity for music school students, amateur musicians, and street musicians to perform at various points in the House. In the Hats Off! series, we fill the external environment of the House of Music, the City Park, with street musicians and the music they play.
In support of the House of Music's mission, we have launched the Fringe programme - a call for applications in three categories - for music schools and their students, hobby musicians and street musicians to perform at various venues in the House. The Up on Stage! series features talented beginner and amateur musicians who have had little opportunity to perform on a wider stage.
