BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 29. Under the support
of the Hungarian Ministry of Culture and Innovation, the Ministry
of Culture of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and the Heydar Aliyev
Foundation, the ensemble “Hungarian Project Rhapsody” is filming
its latest music project in our country, Trend reports.
This project involves a creative collaboration between a musical
ensemble founded under the direction of world-renowned saxophonist
and composer Balint Barsony and prominent Azerbaijani mugham
performers—People’s Artist Mansum Ibragimov and Kamilya Nabiyeva,
winner of a television mugham competition.
The main goal of the project is to revive the musical legacy of
Turkic-Hungarian cultural ties through a contemporary and
distinctive musical language.
As part of the collaboration, video clips for the compositions
“Mehriban olag” and “Sarı gelin” have also been produced. Filming
took place across various locations in Azerbaijan, including the
International Mugham Center, Maiden Tower, Heydar Aliyev Center,
Sea Breeze, Beshbarmag Mountain, and the Caspian Sea coastline.
Founded in 2014 under the leadership of Balint Barsony, the
Hungarian Rhapsody Project also held a concert at the International
Mugham Center during its visit. The ensemble has previously
performed in Germany, Slovakia, Romania, Türkiye, Kazakhstan,
China, and several other countries.
These performances serve not only as musical programs but also
as a cultural dialogue platform aimed at strengthening ties between
related peoples.
