BIOGRAPHY
DÁNIEL LÁzár
(1995) is a Hungarian award – winning composer and educator, an active figure in the contemporary classical music scene, and a member of the Association of Hungarian Composers. He pursued his professional studies at the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music, where he studied composition under Zsolt Serei, Zsófia Tallér and Péter Tornyai.
His works have been performed by renowned ensembles and orchestras such as the Anima Musicae Chamber Orchestra, Danubia Orchestra, Szeged Symphony Orchestra, Alba Regia Symphony Orchestra, and the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra. As a composer, he has collaborated on several occasions with the Szeged Contemporary Dance Company led by Tamás Juronics, and has also contributed music to minor film and theatre productions.
Over the course of his career, he has received numerous accolades: in 2019 he won First Prize at the 2nd Buda Castle Beethoven Composition Competition, and in 2020 he was awarded at the Palace of Arts’ composition competition in the category of music for dance études. In 2022 he was a recipient of the Zoltán Kodály Scholarship, and in the same year he was honoured with Junior Artisjus Award and Istvánffy Benedek Award for his creative achievements.
His current musical language is characterised by minimalist and motivic thinking, often coupled with sonorities evocative of dance or film music. In his compositions, movement and rhythm form the core of the musical dramaturgy, while classical principles of form continue to play an important role.
Alongside his artistic work, he places strong emphasis on education. He currently teaches composition and music theory at the Richter János Secondary School of Music in Győr, and the Tóth Aladár Music School in Budapest.
