Budapest’s Hungarian National Gallery (Magyar Nemzeti Galéria) turns its first-floor dome hall into a live soundscape this Sunday, November 16, 2025, with a one-hour choral concert from 11:00 to 12:00. Any exhibition ticket gets you in—no extra concert fee. Venue: 1014 Budapest, Szent György Square (Szent György tér) 2.
Who’s Performing
The Diósd Gellért Choir (Diósdi Gellért Kórus) steps into the spotlight under conductor Krisztina Takács, bringing a bright, varied program that moves across eras and styles without missing a beat.
What You’ll Hear
Expect a mosaic of choral gems: Norman Luboff’s All My Trials and Levente Horváth’s O salutaris hostia lead into Karl Jenkins’s Cantate Domino. Marzini’s Signore delle chime sets a resonant tone, followed by István Volly’s Repülj, fecském, Ferenc Farkas’s Pataki diákdalok, and Lajos Bárdos’s Tiszai dallamok. Egon Ziesmann’s Joshua adds rhythmic lift before a sparkling encore: Mykola Leontovych’s Shchedryk. It’s compact, catchy, and crystal clear.
Why Go
It’s a perfect Sunday: world-class art, vaulted acoustics, and a choral program curated for breadth and heart—all on one ticket.
