Premiere at the Teatro Real.
A Polish romantic opera which, together with the figure and production of Chopin, is one of the milestones in the country's musical history and which comes to the Real with the voice of the Polish Piotr Beczala. Considered a national treasure, its sung melodies are rooted in Polish tradition. Every time this opera is performed in Poland, it takes on the tinge of a national event.
The artistic quality and its great structure create an agile dramatic pulse within its four acts, which helps to relate its musical elements to the character of Halka.
