Óbudai Társaskör

Óbudai Társaskör is located in the old center of Óbuda in the neighborhood of the Royal Palace. The renovation of the neoclassic historic building – whose history goes back to ancient Roman times – was completed in 1988 by Ybl Prize winner Katalin Korompay. In the two decades since then it has become an acclaimed institution of the cultural and social scene of Budapest and even Hungary.

Óbudai Társaskör is home to the Budapest Strings, the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra, the Anima Musicae Chamber Orchestra and the Budapest Ragtime Band. These bands and orchestras perform at our programs regularly.

Classical music often mingles with literature in our programs – be it poetry or prose. However, the reverse is also true, music is a well received guest at literature evenings, book and audiobook launches.
