\nThe 98-year-old stamp collecting circle of the city of Sz\u00e9kesfeh\u00e9rv\u00e1r combined the concert of the Alba Regia Symphony Orchestra on October 24th with a thematic stamp exhibition. Before the concert, the V\u00f6r\u00f6smarty Theater opened an exhibition about the life and work of Ferenc Liszt, which featured the stamps of Dr. J\u00f3zsef Lippai.
\nThe pharmacist Dr. J\u00f3zsef Lippai started collecting stamps at the age of 10 and learned to play the piano until he was in the fourth year of high school. Even during his studies in Szeged, his love for music remained and he enjoyed attending concerts and the opera. Collecting was very popular at the time; in Szeged the stamp collecting circle had between 600 and 800 members. Every Sunday morning there was a meeting at which stamps were swapped. During his military service, he met his superior in the officers’ club in Pest, who taught him how to collect music stamps. An avid fan of the theme since 1956, everyone can now admire his collection in the gallery of the V\u00f6r\u00f6smarty Theater.
\nAt the opening, Zolt\u00e1n Laczi, president of the city’s stamp collecting circle, said it was a great honor to be able to organize a music-themed stamp exhibition at the V\u00f6r\u00f6smarty Theater before the Alba Regia Symphony Orchestra’s concert.
\nThe director of the Alba Regia Symphony Orchestra emphasized that connections are important in all arts if they can be shown in relation to other arts, but this is not a connection between other arts, but perhaps an even more exciting portfolio: We see a fantastic stamp collection specifically related to Liszt’s work.
\nThe collector Dr. J\u00f3zsef Lippai welcomed the visitors. He said he learned to play the piano as a child and started collecting music-themed stamps more than 50 years ago. Since then he has collected many stamps on the subject of music and is also part of an international collector’s circle based in Germany that deals with it. \u201cI exhibited my first collection at the European Cultural Forum event in 1985, where I presented the collection entitled \u2018Romance in Music\u2019.” In 2011, it was the 200th anniversary of Liszt’s birth, and that’s when my family and I decided to document Franz Liszt’s life in stamps. The material was already there, it just needed to be put together. \u201cIn the years since 2011, the collection has grown to 96 sheets,\u201d said the collector, whose stamps bring to life key moments from Liszt\u2019s life, his first concert, his artistic friendships and his works.
