Program series
Our planned new series is the sister of our regularly sold-out "Joy, Music, Club Life" session. However, as the name suggests, the focus is not on playing music together, but on listening to music and creating music-inspired art.
Following the highly successful event in 2025, the House of Music is once again organizing professional development days for educators, offering insights into best practices in music broadcasting both in Hungary and internationally. The workshops and discussions will focus on playful, experience-based methods that offer new approaches to fostering a love of music. The first day is primarily designed to provide new ideas and methods for last year’s MESH participants, while the second day is aimed at those who are just beginning to explore the world of experiential music education. We tailor the programs to the needs of preschoolers, elementary school students, and high school students so that participants can gain ideas they can apply in their daily teaching work. MESH is also an opportunity to connect: through music and, through it, with one another—all in pursuit of our shared goal of helping children discover the world of music with joy and through new experiences.
On November 12–13, 2026, the House of Music will also join the National Animation Festival, Hungary’s largest animation film event, which will take place at hundreds of venues across the country.
Those of us who still remember how we used to listen to music back when Little Richard sang from shiny black vinyl discs also know what playing records gave music fans: time dedicated to listening to the music with deep absorption, printed lyrics to browse and memorable album covers. And there was even more, because the medium itself influenced the songwriting: the very designation of sides A and B of singles raised the question of the priority and order of the songs, which brought with it the genesis and application of the musical or ideological concept that served as the organising principle behind the entire album.
Take a look around the indoor spaces of the House of Music Hungary with an expert music teacher as your guide! The best thing about our building tour is that it is not just about architecture, but also the music created and performed in the spaces! Why? Who for? How?
SOUNDING WALKS are thematic guided events - in the permanent exhibition space - that can be visited in series, but can also be a complete event on its own. Music teacher Dóra Tápai, the lecturer of the successful Hangadó Senior music history series, will guide those interested through the halls of the exhibition according to the given topics. What we see and hear, and what is still behind it! Interesting facts, entertaining educational in an hour, after which visitors can enjoy the exhibition on their own.
A new series entitled World Village+ is launching at the House of Music, which, as a companion to Balázs Weyer's educational music series World Village, focuses on playing music together in a workshop format.
