Artiste: Opéra d'État hongrois

Jean Cocteau rencontre Philip Glass à l'Opéra d'État hongrois, dans le cadre neuf de l'Eiffel Art Studios, et cette production des Enfants terribles se déroule à un tempo infernal !

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

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.

With over 300 performances of operas, ballets and concerts, the Hungarian State Opera and National Ballet are ever resourceful. We preview their expansive 2025–26 season. 

The 2024–25 season features new productions of Turandot, Maria Stuarda, Macbeth and La Bayadère, as well as a host of titles in rep from Hungary and elsewhere.

The vast 2023–24 season at Budapest boast 41 different operas and 19 ballets – with new productions of Boris Godunov, Rusalka, ballets by Bartók, and a world premiere from Peter Eötvös.
