Musicians & Artists

   The orchestra for the projects of VGM Classics is the Budapest Symphony Orchestra (BPSO). BPSO was founded in 1992 by members of the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra (HRSO) for projects and activities outside their usual performance and broadcast duties. Over the years, BPSO has provided wonderful orchestral colors for many classical music, film, and television productions.

   The choir for the projects of VGM Classics is the Hungarian Radio Choir (HRC). It was established in 1950 to perform both a cappella and orchestral choral repertoires for Hungarian Radio and beyond. The choir has been involved in many recordings over the years, including a Grammy-nominated 1997 album of musical works by Kodály and Bartók with Sir George Solti and the Berlin Philharmonic.
