Info for Johann Sebastian Bach



"I do not intend to evaluate the music of Johann Sebastian Bach in any form here. The basic situation for me in this respect is very simple: I have not been able to identify with any intellectual argumentation or analysis, for I have always had a feeling of incompleteness. No superlative seems sufficient to me. Regarding the tunes of Bach, the saying that music begins where the word ends is the truest one for me."

"I felt an inner attraction, an urge to be able to play his works that he had not essentially composed for piano. The main guiding principle in the concept of my transcriptions was to reproduce the original sounds as simply and clearly as possible. I did not strive for technical and acoustic virtuosity, nevertheless I found the performance of my own transcriptions a great challenge. Special congratulations and thanks to Misi Boros for taking on one of my favorite and memorable transcriptions and for joining our collaborative recording with his usual thorough preparation, deep understanding and courage."

He studied at the Sibelius Academy in Finland, at the Ferenc Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest and at the University Academy of Music in Bloomington, USA. He attended master classes with Dmitry Bashkirov, András Schiff, Annie Fischer, Murray Perahia and Ferenc Rados. He has been awarded prizes at numerous international piano competitions, such as the International Piano Competition in the former Czechoslovakia, the International Piano Competition in Epinal, France, the International Piano Competition in Ettlingen, Germany and the "Helmi-Vesa Piano Competition" of the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki. Bogányi has won First Prizes at the Chopin Piano Competition of the Ferenc Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest, the Mozart Piano Competition in Hungary and the International Piano Competition in Indianapolis, USA. He also won First Prize at the International Liszt Competition in Budapest in autumn 1996. As a soloist he performs regularly in Belgium, Germany, Austria, France, Spain, Sweden, Finland, Latvia, Estonia and in Italy. Many of his concerts have been recorded by radio and television stations. In Hungary he has performed with all the major orchestras, in Finland with the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra and the Helsinki Radio Symphony Orchestra and in Holland with the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra.

Misi Boros
has been playing the piano since the age of 4. Starting at the age of 8, he won first place in eleven age-group competitions in his native Hungary, and he has also won competitions in Rome, Milan, and Paris. Between 2013 and 2022, he gave 300 public concerts in cities beyond historic Hungary, including New York, Milan, Zurich, Tokyo, Osaka, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Brussels, Stockholm, Gothenburg, Munich, Zagreb, Paris, Aix-en-Provence, London, Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, Sao Paulo, and other cities. At the age of 10, in 2013, he participated in Lang Lang's International Children's Course in Munich. The Süddeutsche Zeitung wrote: ”Some children are absolutely fabulous. For example Mihály Boros Brambauer (2003), who plays with distinction, finds a lot of joy in music, and at the same time is a little intellectual with a sense for arches and dynamics." (SZ 8 November 2013) In 2017, he gave a solo concert at the Palace of Arts (Budapest, Hungary)…with the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra. The concert recording was praised by the Guardian. He has performed with twenty-two conductors and nineteen orchestras. Misi is currently a student at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Munich. He is a Junior Prima Prize winner.
