Index – Culture – Hungarian band is the main attraction at Indian billionaire's lavish wedding

We have already written about the Budapest Orchestra's scoring several times, and the Hungarian Symphony Orchestra borrowed it from the South Korean series that has taken the world by storm, squid game Her musical background, however, Wednesday They also worked on Tim Burton's production. Then Matthias Olvitti played cello for protagonist Jenna Ortega.

However, we are now a little farther away from the Netflix series, as we watched it on the other side of the globe, in India – only by phone, of course. The 36-member Budapest Scoring Orchestra is currently waiting in Mumbai to perform at the world’s most lavish event.

Ananth, one of the richest and most influential people in the world, is getting married, and the Budapest Scoring Band will be the headline band at the five-day celebration.

And if that alone wasn’t enough glory, the Hungarian musicians came to India directly at the request of the family. Since Budapest Scoring has worked on the music of many Bollywood productions, the band has gained immense popularity in India.

A stunning flood of stars

The billionaire's son's previous wedding in March was attended by dozens of Bollywood stars, Asian business luminaries and world-famous guests such as Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and Ivanka Trump, but singing stars such as Rihanna and Justin Bieber also performed. And at the main wedding – which will begin on the evening of July 12, 2024 – famous people will also pay their respects: the late US President Barack Obama is also among the attendees.

The wedding will be held at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, where the Hungarian band also performed last year. Preparations have been underway for a month at the 40,000-square-metre complex, with 12,000 workers working non-stop to put on the biggest and most spectacular wedding ever under one roof.

The Budapest Scoring match will certainly be played on the most important day, today and tomorrow, that is, at the engagement party itself. The wedding is practically an art festival. The accompanying music is provided by a local composer duo. Most of the music we accompany is about some god, or part of some celebration

“The index is very good,” Balint Sabszon, founder of Budapest Scoring, told the index.

Professional production

“For us, playing music didn’t require much preparation, but our look did. Everyone had to give their measurements, and they made a personal traditional dress, like a caftan, for everyone. They take this whole event very seriously. We won’t wear traditional tuxedos, we dress to match the setting. We’re in a great environment, all the main actors, set designers, sound engineers, lighting, set designers are the best professionals in the world,” said Sabszon.

The Budapest band arrived in Mumbai at the beginning of the week. The musical material was received the next day, and since then several stage rehearsals have been held. The evening before the wedding, a rehearsal was held with the participation of the family, and they arrived at the ceremony very early, as almost everything in the city was closed due to the constant arrival of stars and influencers. The band takes the stage at around 9 or 10 pm local time and sets the tone for the five-day wedding.
