...Is That All? NFFRA Benefit Concert

  • St. Paul's Church 20 Fair Street Nantucket, MA, 02554 United States (map)

Music of Eastern Europe, particularly music of Hungary, has long inspired composers from Haydn to Brahms and beyond to stretch and adapt their musical language to the idiosyncrasies of this region. Two of the most important composers of the 20th century, Béla Bartók and György Ligeti, were Hungarian, the former reinventing the definition of folk music, and the latter taking us to worlds hereto unimagined. Brahms’ famous Hungarian Dances also make an appearance in this diverse program paying homage to a rich musical tradition.
