Accordion at the Bartók Conservatory

One important aim of the festival is to let a young accordionist and their family do more than hear about further study: they can experience in person the environment in which serious accordion study can continue in Budapest.

The next step

If you feel: I would like to take this further.

Accordion can be studied as a main subject at the Bartók Conservatory. The festival offers a special opportunity because the question of further study does not begin with a brochure: you can hear music, meet students, ask questions and form a personal impression in the same place.

Meet the teacher and students

Discover the professional and human environment in which accordion study can continue after music school.

Ask the questions that really matter

Admissions, requirements, instrument, lessons, repertoire and future study are much easier to understand in a personal conversation.

Stay informed if you want to

Festival registration includes a separate optional choice for receiving further information about accordion studies at Bartók.

The first question is often not how to play it, but simply: may I try?
Personal contact

Don’t only look at the school. Meet the people behind it.

At the festival, further study is not distant institutional information. A child and parent can see the instrument up close, hear students play, ask questions and meet the teacher they may later work with.
