Making space for talents

Young people, eager to show themselves, full of energy, sensitivity and curiosity. During the 2016-17 season, Iván Fischer gives three conductors already closely connected to the BFO the opportunity of making their Hungarian debuts by leading the Festival Orchestra. In November, Gergely Dubóczky from Hungary and in April, France’s Victor Aviat and the Australian Vladimir Fanshil, will stand in the limelight on the stage of the Liszt Academy.

Iván Fischer, BFO Music Director, spoke about the point of the concert series: “I vividly remember what it was like when I was similarly thrown in at the deep end a few decades ago. It was so helpful to see so many pairs of friendly, supportive eyes in the concert hall. Please give these new youngsters a smile.”
