Music/City

We had an elusive goal: we wanted Veszprém to be the city with the highest number of people (relative to population size) making music and singing. We didn't want to measure it so much as to feel it. Because, according to numerous surveys, cities where a lot of people play music are happier. 

Veszprém was awarded the UNESCO City of Music title in 2019, and since then, every day, it has been working to be worthy of this title. Veszprém is Leopold Auer's town of birth - and this is a source of pride as well as a responsibility for us.  

We have always believed in building from the bottom up. From musical experiences for the youngest, training for professionals, inspiring venues for amateur bands and orchestras, unique educational and community opportunities for young and old, beginners and re-starters, to breathing new life into choral traditions and musical curiosities for the discerning and demanding Veszprém audience. Music does not just play for us: it happens to us.
