We would like to inform you that Janine Jansen has been forced to cancel her joint performance with the Festival Orchestra on medical advice. She is sincerely sorry about being unable to take part in the concerts, and hopes to have another opportunity to play in Budapest with the Festival Orchestra in the near future. We are very happy that Dutch violinist Liza Ferschtman will play the solo violin in Leonard Bernstein's Serenade during the Budapest concerts on 9, 11 and 12 January as well as on the BFO tour which starts on 13 January.
