Exactly on the 140th anniversary of Franz Liszt’s death, on 31 July, the Liszt Museum announced its new, autumn matinée season. The museum welcomes audiences every Saturday at 11 a.m. for a unique concert in the Chamber Music Hall of the Old Academy of Music from September.
A museum visit, a guided tour and a mini concert — one package from March.
A new temporary exhibition has opened – as it does every year – in November. It explores the work of Franz Liszt’s friend and chamber partner, the violinist and composer Jenő Hubay.

A life-size bust and a photograph of Franz Liszt, made shortly before his death on his last trip to England in April 1886, have been added to the institution's collection, and were presented at the opening of this year's Liszt Birthday Festival. For many years now, the Liszt Birthday Festival has become a tradition organised by the Liszt Academy and the Liszt Museum to commemorate the anniversary of the birth of Franz Liszt.

A world-renowned and respected composer, pianist and teacher, he was one of the founders and president of the Liszt Academy of Budapest. The institution he founded still bears his name and strives to continue his legacy. Our museum and research centre is dedicated to the composer's life and former home, with the aim of presenting his life and work to a wider audience through interesting programmes and academic research. We also aim to ensure that visitors enjoy their time in the museum, leave with good memories and are eager to return to Liszt's former home.
