It’s a week with plenty to choose from. The Budapest Festival Orchestra make a first Dublin appearance under Iván Fischer at the NCH, playing popular symphonies by Haydn and Beethoven, with Stephen Hough getting the year’s Liszt celebrations underway in the composer’s First Piano Concerto.

The RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra is in action twice. Tonight there's a rare opportunity to hear a concerto for two trombones. The NSO's own Jason Sinclair joins the evening's conductor, ace trombonist Christian Lindberg, in Swedish composer Jan Sandström's Echoes of Eternity, and Lindberg can also be heard in a late-night solo recital.

On Tuesday, David Fennessy's BODIESand James MacMillan's . . . as others see us . . .are conducted by Fergus Sheil in the second of the Horizons concerts.

The Irish Baroque Orchestra’s Masterworks 2011 concerts, directed by Monica Huggett, celebrate the work of Bach, Vivaldi and Rameau at Christ Church Cathedral on Tuesday and Thursday (with more to follow on Saturday and Sunday).

And on Thursday, this year's NCH Rising Star, pianist Fiachra Garvey, plays a programme of Brahms, Debussy, Schumann and Stravinsky (the Three Movements from Petrushka), plus the winning piece from the Jerome Hynes Composers' Competition 2010.
