After having received his honory doctorate from the Ferenc Liszt Academy of Music, we had the privilege of welcoming Alan Walker, the world-renowned British-Canadian scholar, to our museum.

Professor Alan Walker, who has close professional ties with Hungary, personally received the diploma recognizing his work in promoting the works of Ferenc Liszt at a ceremony held on May 7.

This year's QS World University Rankings by Subject placed the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music 24th in the Performing Arts category and 12th in music education, which means it is among the best higher education institutions in the world.

The Old Academy of Music opened its doors 145 years ago.
