    Лучший концерт в моей жизни. Даже если бы это было единственное, что удалось увидеть и услышать в Будапеште, стоило приехать в этот замечательный город. Благодарю всех, кто предоставил эту замечательную возможность насладиться Божественным Моментом!

    The concert was realy lovely. The Organ player was excellent. He is indeed a great organist. This kind of performance: organ with solo instruments or voices was unknown to me and to my opinion it was very refreshing.

    excellente prestation musicale et lyrique; dommage qu'en période hivernale, il fasse si froid dans la basilique qui par ailleurs est trés belle. Le processus de réservation est simple et efficace

    Moment magique ! La basilique dans laquelle ce joue le concert est magnifique ! Excellente accoustique ! Enorme coup de coeur pour ma part à la Soprano Zsuzsanna Skoff, au Ténor Xavier Rivadeneira ! Les musiciens jouaient parfaitement ! Tout était en harmonie ! Une inoubliable soirée à Vienne !

    The performans and the atmosphere inside the Basilica was great. The only problem was it was so uncomfortably cold that if the concert lasted a little longer we would probably freeze. It took us a while to get warm again.

  • FABRICE H, France

  • Celia G, France

    On other sites, the tickets were sold out. I bought them on this site and I am thankful because the performance was amazing. Professional and passionate musicians, in such a beautiful Church. Very emotional. Breathtaking. I loved it and I would go back again if I could. It is a must to highlight your trip to Budapest.

    The history and beauty of the space go without saying. A lovely concert for an evening, the season and the simple joy of music on a wintry, holiday night.

    Dec 2018

    The atmosphere was amazing. That church was the most beautiful church I have ever seen. Solists and the musicians were perfect. The program was nbelievable. I strictly recommend the St. Stephane Basilica Concert to whom anyone visit in Budapest. The concert was the most impressive thing I did. I supposed that this must be the first thing that should be done in Budapest if available. Enjoy

    Enjoyed the classical consert. Lovely venue and aquastics is great, but the church was a bit too cold and had to sit with jumper and woollen cap on.

  • Emiko U, 日本

    Dec 2018

    大聖堂の壁面には始まる前にプロジェクションマッピングが現れ、近辺にはクリスマスマーケットが開催されていて、とても感激しました。勿論、大聖堂の中でのコンサートも最高でした。ただ、尋常ではない寒さだったのでドレスコードもないし完全防寒で臨むべきでした。

    Just fabulous

  • yoko h, 日本

    Nov 2018

    音響の良い荘厳な教会での、しっかりしたプロによる演奏でした。ソプラノの出番は3曲でしたがもう少しあるとさらに良かったかと感じました。70分程でポピュラーなクラッシック曲を予定通り演奏して、あっさりとした終わり方・・クラッシック音楽のホールコンサートではアンコールがたいがいありますので、ちょっと区切って最後の数曲はアンコール部分としたらもう少し盛り上がったかと思いました。この2日前に聖マーチャーシュ教会での同オーケストラの演奏を聴く機会があり、歌は無くて数人のメンバーが変わっていましたが、やはり立派な教会の良い音響のもとで、しっかりした演奏を楽しみました。

  • Andrew C, Hungary

    Oct 2018

    The music was very well performed and the choice of pieces was also well judged. I would give a five but the sound had some echoes towards the back where we were sitting. Still, a minor point. Thoroughly recommend.

  • Linda C, Hungary

    Oct 2018

    Lovely selection of music. Acoustics could have been better. Too much echo, especially for voice.

    Excellent, nous avons passé une soirée musicale inoubliable dans un lieu magique et une sonorité extraordinaire, 1h de concert, ….. nous serions restés plus longtemps pour écouter ce concert de violons, …. cinq violons, et chaque instrument était mis en valeur … et cette voix soprano qui envahissait l'espace de la basilique …… Merci,

  • Eelke M., Hungary

    Dec 2011

    Quality of performance and atmosphere were excellent. Remark: the performance lasted very short, not even 1 hour. This is quite short considering the ticket price
