The Fairy Queen, Eiffel Art Studios – Miklós Bánffy Stage, 3 April
- 3 Apr 2022 7:00 PM
- classical
Purcell's The Fairy Queen was originally a “semi-opera”, that is, a series of musical passages created for a production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream which did not relate an independent story, but only took on true meaning in conjunction with the prose work.
András Almási-Tóth conceives the work as an opera and incorporates the music into a new story.
This version of A ...
Gala Concert, Erkel Theatre Budapest, 5 March
- 5 Mar 2022 7:00 PM
- classical
When Erkel Theatre was reopened for performances in 2013 after 6 years of beauty sleep, we knew that the quick repairs would be enough only to keep the building open for a couple of years.
It is now time to get to work again, to repair its technologies, and to redesign its spaces. Almost a decade has passed since then, and as the Opera House opens it will be time to take the first steps to ...

Opera in three parts, in English, with Hungarian surtitles
British music is often faulted for having failed to produce a significant composer for three hundred years after Purcell.
If ever a later composer felt it incumbent on himself to look back into England’s past and write a piece based on the work of its most world-famous artistic genius, Shakespeare, it was Benjamin Britten, the ...
Dead Man Walking, Eiffel Art Studios Budapest, 23 January
- 23 Jan 2022 7:00 PM

Jake Heggie’s opera Dead Man Walking poignantly reveals the reality of the death penalty, as well as the internal conflicts of the condemned prisoners and those who resist social pressure in order to help them.

'Messiah' – Staged Oratirio, Eiffel Art Studios Budapest, 24 December
- 24 Dec 2021 11:00 AM

Proclaiming (notably with the popular “Hallelujah” chorus) the coming and resurrection of the Saviour, Messiah remains to this day one of the most popular of Handel’s works.

The ...
Puccini's: La bohème, Erkel Theatre Budapest, 23 December
- 23 Dec 2021 7:04 PM
- classical
Some operas are legendary. None more so than Puccini's work telling the tale of young bohemians in Paris, in which one of the most beautiful romances in operatic literature begins with a burnt-out candle and a misplaced key.
There are also legendary opera productions, such as this one directed by Kálmán Nádasdy. With Gusztáv Oláh's marvellous scenery, it is a genuine example of theatrical ...
