Zwischentöne 2026 – Signs, Games, Messages

Zwischentöne Engelberg 2026 centres on the centenary of Hungarian composer György Kurtág. The ten-concert programme includes five works by Kurtág and two of his Bach arrangements, music by Bartók, Kodály, Ligeti and Veress, plus a late-night Hungarian folk programme from Budapest. The ticketed programme starts at 17:30 on Friday 16 October 2026 and concludes on Sunday 18 October with the final concert starting at 18:30. The festival site gives the wider dates 15–18 October but publishes no concert time for 15 October, so this record uses the actual ticket programme start. Most concerts are at the Kursaal; Saturday's matinée is in the Baroque Hall at Kloster Engelberg. Individual concert tickets cost CHF 45–60 and students receive a 50% discount. Festival passes cost CHF 310–500; Engelberg residents and second-home owners can obtain a 10% discount code from the tourist office. No separate age limit, accessibility information or cancellation terms are stated.
