Part of the BBC Proms. Among the many achievements of Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra has been the introduction of new types of non-standard concert: one-hour family 'cocoa concerts' for young children, 'one forint concerts' where the conductor can reach out and talk to a larger crowd, and 'surprise' concerts where the programme is not announced. Tonight the audience will be asked to choose what they would like to hear played from the range of possible options in the orchestra's capacious music library. Finish time: approx. 223:00. There will be no interval.
