Edition 2026 ‘Magyar Etüdök’, conducted by Zoltán Pad

Twenty young singers together with four Hungarian choral professionals

In 2026, we present “Magyar Etüdök,” under the direction of Zoltán Pad, conductor of the Hungarian Radio Choir. This edition explores the richness of Hungarian choral music with works by grandmasters such as Béla Bartók, Zoltán Kodály, György Ligeti, and László Lajtha. With the title “Magyar Etüdök” (Hungarian Etudes), after the eponymous work by Ligeti, the program explores the musical heritage that has made Hungary a cradle of choral music and music education.

Rehearsal period: February 14 to February 20, 2026

Concert series: February 21 to February 28. Click here for the concert venues.

Notice regarding the continuation of Meesters&Gezellen

This summer, Geert Berghs, founder and driving force behind Meesters en Gezellen, passed away unexpectedly. This has deeply affected us all. For 15 years, Geert was the great inspirer, organizer, and artistic leader of this project, and we will miss him dearly.

The board of Stichting Tettix has decided to continue this wonderful project. To begin, the 2026 edition in february, that will feature the Hungarian Radio Choir. Around that time, together with Daniel Reuss, conductor of Cappella Amsterdam, and Cyrille Nanchen, choral conductor in Switzerland, we will start making plans for the following years.
