A concert of the Óbuda Chamber Orchestra is always a celebration of playing music together. For their spring concert, in the room named after their founder, Otto Till, they perform popular works and contemporary pieces. In the first part, we can hear Vivaldi's sparkling concerto, see Sancho Panza's donkey galopping in our imagination, and witness Don Quijote fight the windmill in Telemann's work. The soloist of the big hit, Bach's Suite B minor, is flutist Gabriella Hegyesi, lead director of the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, former student of Till Ottó's.

Following the break, the opening work is a contemporary piece, so much so that the composer himself sits in the band. In the end, the ever enthusiastic audience of friends, family members, former orchestra members and enthusiasts return home with the soothing tunes of a little, or rather, "The" little night serenade.
