Though the Budapest Tomkins Vocal Ensemble took the name of a Renaissance master, it has been committed to the performance of contemporary music from the start. They maintain close working relationships with several composers, commissioning and premiering works. Their concert at CAFe Budapest presents a selection of pieces by three generations of Hungarian composers.
Several of the songs were written with the encouragement of ensemble leader János Dobra. Ákos Zarándy, one of the youngest composers, wrote his piece for female voice on Rabindranath Tagore’s lyrics; it was premiered by the ensemble in 2014.
Nor is this the first time Lőrinc Muntag and Csanád Kedves have entrusted the premiere of their works to the Tomkins Ensemble. Zsolt Serei’s composition on the words of Bálint Balassi was also commissioned by János Dobra, and Mária Horváth, who sings the solo.
