The MR Symphony Orchestra gained recognition among top symphony orchestras with innumerable concerts both in Hungary and abroad performing and recording almost the entire symphonic and oratorical repertoire. They regularly play at the final and gala concerts of international music competitions. Leading international critics praise the ensemble for their balanced, sound flexibility and for fostering contemporary Hungarian composers by playing and recording their works. From January 1st, 2009 Stephen D’Agostino is the chief conductor of the orchestra. The New York born artist studied in the United States. He came to Hungary by winning a Fulbright Scholarship in 1993. He took part at two European tours with the Budapest Festival Orchestra as the assistant of Sir George Solti. The same year he was given a special prize of the Grzegorz Fitelberg International Conductor’s Competition. He is a sought after guest conductor both in Europe and in the US. The soloist of the evening, the Chinese violinist Li Qi won the scholarship of the Crescendo con Spirito Summer Arts’Academy in 2008 in Sárospatak. As the most successful participant of the competition organised by the Zemplen Festival and Crescendo she received an invitation to this year’s festival with the support of the American “Song of the Nations” foundation and the Masterworks Festival. |
