Ambrogio Maestri gibt Budapester Falstaff Auftrieb

David Karlin, 22nd May

Der große Mann im Fettanzug dominiert die Show und gibt dem Falstaff der Ungarischen Staatsoper Elan und Lebensfreude.

Glänzende Turandot an der Ungarischen Staatsoper

Jenny Camilleri, 30th January

Aufregend dirigiert und überwiegend gut gesungen sollte diese üppige aber schnörkellose Turandot sowohl Traditionalisten und abenteuerlustige Operngänger erfreuen.

All that glitters is not gold in Budapest's new Lohengrin

Orsolya Gyárfás, 16th November

Klára Kolonits's radiant Elsa proves the main attraction in the Hungarian State Opera's visually appealing but conceptually lacking new Lohengrin.

A thrilling, opulent La Bayadère at Hungarian National Ballet

Gianmarco Segato, 14th June

Hungarian National Ballet's La Bayadère revitalizes tradition with a new reconstruction of its forgotten final act.

*****

Visually splendid, dramatically parched La Gioconda in Budapest

Gianmarco Segato, 11th June

Hungarian State Opera's cut-down, dramatically inert Gioconda fails to ignite the stage in Budapest, despite a solid musical foundation.

Stumbling towards the chopping block: Maria Stuarda in Budapest

Orsolya Gyárfás, 14th May

Martin Rajna's energetic conducting and Gabriella Balga's glorious Elisabetta are the bright spots in this flashy but empty house premiere of Donizetti's classic.
