Broken beauty: the beauty of the temporary nature of living things. Entropy: the malleable nature of time, which for us humans can only manifest itself in one direction, towards decay, destruction, passing away. The works of the now world-famous Icelandic composer Anna Thorvalsdottir and the Hungarian composer Judit Varga, who lives in Vienna, frame the UMZE Ensemble's concert about ephemeral beauty. The "fragile beauty" of the music is not only evident in the concept and musical material of the pieces performed, but also in the way several composers strive for a delicate balance between live music and recorded music, as well as between the acoustic sound of traditional instruments and electronic musical effects. The magical timbres of Gyula Bánkövi and the beautifully complex work of Balázs Futó will be joined by premieres composed for the occasion by the youngest generation of Hungarian composers, Csenge Mihalicza and Botond Bartokos.
