Badár Sándor, Kovács András Péter, Szente-Veres Adrienn

A century ago, the world first encountered this remarkable opus, a work that soon became one of the cornerstones of twentieth-century musical innovation. Premiered in 1926, the singspiel is a milestone in Hungarian music history: its composer, Zoltán Kodály, fulfilled his aspiration to elevate Hungarian folk song of ancient origin to the same status as classical music, by virtue of its equivalent values, placing it on the stage of the nation’s Opera House.

Diana Damrau, named Singer of the Year numerous times by leading international journals and competitions, was inspired to pursue an operatic career by Franco Zeffirelli’s 1983 film adaptation of La traviata.

Egy kivételes este. Egy legendás művész. Egy életre szóló élmény.
