Dementia care program

Dear Reader,

The connection between music and the brain has had a hold on researchers for a long time, and all of them agree that active involvement with music not only keeps the brain fresh, but also correlates with other areas: our mood, creativity, and performance.

In this weekly 60 minute class, music skills and developing musical memory are in the main focus, calling upon the great composers’ outstanding pieces. We help correct, improve, and freshen up the brain’s function using popular, and less well-known tunes, rhythm games and exercises.

Ability to read sheet music is not a requirement, only the love for classical music.

Our first groups begin in the fall of 2023 and will take place on Maros street (near Széll Kálmán square in the 12th district of Budapest) and will meet over the course of 6 weeks.

The program takes place on the 3rd floor. There is no elevator in the building, so it is important that stairs not be an issue for the participants.

The 6 week program costs 42.000Ft.

Bosnyák Csilla, music educator will be leading the classes.

We can’t wait to meet you!
