“I have lost my heart in Budapest” – magical melodies in the Rumbach Street Synagogue is a premium quality concert theatre series in the 150-year-old building, which will be open to the public again in its original splendour.

The concert series has the undisguised aim of expressing respect and gratitude for the musical heritage of composers who, in addition to success and fame, have shared a typical Central European, Hungarian-Jewish fate.

The performance includes famous and popular works from operettas such as The Csardas Princess, Countess Maritza, Ball at the Savoy, Gypsy Love, The Bajadere and the film scores of Miklós Rózsa, three-time Oscar-winning composer of the films Ben-Hur and Quo Vadis.
Miklós Brodszky’s famous composition “Be my love” , composed for the film “The Toast of New Orleans” , will be also performed.
Not to be missed is Rezső Seress’ iconic song “Gloomy Sunday”, this time in the language of contemporary dance.

The composers are Emmerich Kálmán, Franz Lehár, Paul Abrahám Nicholas Brodszky, Miklós Rózsa, Rezső Seress, Walter Jurmann.

Concert starts at 7:00 PM
Duration: 90 minutes, concert in one part without intermission

We are committed to ensuring that our guests leave the Rumbach Street Synagogue with a drifting, premium quality programme, filled with wonderful melodies and a lasting experience. This is guaranteed by the well-known singing and dancing soloists and the MusicArt Classic concert orchestra.

Before and after the performance there will be a “flodni” [Jewish pastry topped with plum jam, walnut, apple and poppy seed] and a champagne bar. Depending on the weather, we will serve them in the synagogue garden or in the foyer. Flodni and drinks are not included in the ticket price.
