The major city of Hungary Budapest will hold the biggest cultural event in Hungary the Budapest Spring Festival with fantastic orchestras brilliant chamber concerts jazz sessions contemporary dance performances cultural film screenings of a few of the emminent new artists with a multitude of venues that present these international performers in a way that can only be supplied by this unique historic city.
The Name Budapest was formed from three historic towns joining together Buda Obuda and Pest in 1873. The River Danube goes through the middle of the city creating a unique transport path along its length.
Budapest has a rich and engrossing history which easily draws you in as you move around its beautiful streets. Budapests Cultural heritage fits in well with the Budapest Spring Festival as it is a bustling thriving city bringing in many fantastic artists over the years. Recognizing the unique value of its traditions it has managed to keep its magic and charm and is well known as the Queen of the Danube. It has also been called the City of Spas as there are a dozen spring baths complexes provided for by over a hundred natural thermal springs.
This 2009 Budapest Spring Festival the theatre section of the Budapest Spring Festival features Hungarian premire The Park by Botho Strauss and Puccini’s Turandot conducted by Pter Oberfrank which will be a performance that is not to be missed out on.
Orchestral concerts include performances by Joshua Bell amp; the Camerata Salzburg and Oleg Maisenberg amp; the Kremerata Baltica while on the jazz front there is the Nigel Kennedy Quintet featuring the famous English violinist.
I went to see the Nigel Kennedy Quintet when they performed at the Salisbury Festival in the UK and they were brilliant and for those of you who are culturally energised it is well worth travelling to this fantastic city and festival.
Obviously if this year you where considering going Gorilla Trekking in the heart of Africa or organising a tailor made holiday in India who am I to stand in your way what I am saying is that Budapest spring Festival is an event that shouldnt be missed.
