Mihály's recital opens with Davidsbündlertänze, Robert Schumann's set of 18 colourful dance pieces. After the interval, we journey east with a selection of Romanian folk dances and Hungarian peasant songs, adapted for the piano by Béla Bartók, followed by his dazzling Piano Sonata.

A Hungarian-born pianist, Mihály Győrfy has recorded with the Hungarian National Radio twice and performed at venues ranging from St. James’ Church Piccadilly all the way to the Fazioli Hall in Sacile, Italy.
Mihály is also founder of the Holloway Music Series, a new project dedicated to bringing classical music to the north-east London area. He is currently doing his Master’s studies at the Royal Academy of Music, where he will also be performing in a concert dedicated to transcribed piano music as part of the 2023 RAM Summer Piano Festival.
With prior experience in music technology, Mihály is keen to learn more about the recording process. Lately, he has started shadowing the Academy’s recording department through larger projects in pursuit of this interest. He also tunes his own piano.
