Supporting you in every way
When our founder, Csaba Lőkös, set up the Budapest Film Orchestra and CLmusic in 1988, his vison was to make it as easy as possible to create great music in Budapest.
Based on the level of repeat business and referrals we receive, his vision continues to be fulfilled!
To that end, we can provide you with as little, or as much, support as you need.
