Dear Colleagues and Musician Friends all around the world,

The International Kodály Seminar has invited hundreds of musicians from all over the world to Zoltán Kodály’s birthplace, Kecskemét since its beginnings in 1970, when Mrs Sarolta Kodály organised the first Seminar. 

In 2025 we will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Kodály Institute, along with many other anniversaries. 

The 34th International Kodály Seminar is going to be organized in light of this in a special way in the summer of 2025:
— starting on 28 July
— spiced with a Kodály Institute Alumni Reunion on the weekend of 2-3 August, and
— culminating and joining in the events of the 27th International Kodály Symposium organized between 4 and 8 August 2025

The Seminar offers the usual activities in the first week: choral singing, musicianship training, choral conducting and methodology classes in early childhood, on primary and secondary level, and choir methodology. During the second week, the choral sessions (joined optionally by Symposium participants) and the musicianship classes continue in the mornings, while in the afternoons, participants will be able to attend the workshops/lectures of the Symposium. 

The choral singing sessions will be special as participants of the Seminar, joined by the participants of the Symposium from 4 August, are going to prepare for the performance of Kodály’s Te Deum – conducted by Peter Erdei, the former founding director of the Institute – together with the Kecskemét Symphony Orchestra led by Huba Hollókői as part of the Kodály Music Festival on 8 August, 2025, the Closing Event of all events. 

2025 is also an anniversary year, the 150th, for the Liszt Academy – our mother institution since 2005 – and to celebrate this, the Budavári Te Deum will also be performed in the Grand Hall of the Academy in Budapest on 7 August. (Transportation for participants will be provided.)

Spread the word! Encourage friends, students and colleagues to come and join us in celebrating, music making, strengthening professional relationships, making friendships and, in one word, creating memorable experiences!
