Program series

One of the cornerstones of the House of Music is music education. Its goal is to make the joy of music accessible to as many people as possible. 

The concerts in our series are designed to highlight the diversity of music. Classical, jazz and popular music are all part of the series, so if you attend our events, you will soon see that music truly has a thousand faces. What is more, following the concerts, the performers provide an opportunity to get to know the instruments that were played during the performance and take a closer look at them. Put another way, taking part in a musical journey has never been easier.

Recommended age: 5 years and up.

The language of the events are hungarian. 

Árpád Tóth's interactive educational series Hangadó, which coincides with the House, has entered its 4th season.In 2025/26 we are preparing double performances, so we also welcome those who like to sleep late on Sundays: our performances will be repeated at 14:00 in addition to the usual 11:00 start. This year, we will continue to explore the known and less known chapters of a thousand years of music history in a unique cross-section and with an unusual perspective, while the basic theme of the performances remains the same: it is simply impossible not to go home humming.

This program will be held in Hungarian.

On György Kurtág's 100th birthday, we are presenting the latest Hangdóm film, Kurtág-univerzum (Kurtág Universe), in honor of the composer, in which György Kurtág's abstract mood sketches come to life to the sounds of the cycle Zwiegespräch, composed with his son, György Kurtág Jr. in the special space of the House of Music. The 15-minute Sound Dome film Kurtág-univerzum, produced by the Budapest Music Center as part of the Kurtág 100 program series, will remain available for viewing among the Hangdóm 360 cinema screenings after the premiere.

The content was created by BMC and its partner, the Paul Sacher Stiftung.

"Sound/Man" is a special series of conversational and musical shows where well-known musicians share their personal experiences and creative secrets as storytellers. 

Rock and roll is, somewhat simplistically, the result of a particular cultural-historical fusion: that of when the musical traditions of Black slaves brought over from Africa met those of white settlers who had emigrated from Europe to the new world, the Americas. Moreover, all this took place in a radically transforming society, following technological progress and its associated industrialisation and urbanisation. In the second season of this series, we look at the social, cultural and musical events of the period from Elvis to the twilight of the rock and roll era in the Fifties.

The House of Music, Hungary is launching a new, entertaining series: music quizzes in the Pop Culture Club Library! Do your friends no longer even have to open Shazam, they immediately know just to ask you? Is Spotify one of your favourite apps? Is your Facebook wall regularly filled with fun music facts? Do you maintain carefully curated playlists? Have you ever played a newly discovered song to your puzzled friends and then had to explain, with considerable effort, what makes it such great music? If you recognise yourself in the above, then this might not be such a big secret for you, but you are a die-hard music fan! Just like us. Just for you and music gurus like ourselves, we have created the Dammit, I Knew That! quiz series, held in the Pop Culture Club Library of the House of Music, Hungary.

This program is held in Hungarian.

Our planned new series is the sister of our regularly sold-out "Joy, Music, Club Life" session. However, as the name suggests, the focus is not on playing music together, but on listening to music and creating music-inspired art.
