The Opera has already performed the Defiant Requiem once before, in May 2018. That performance took place at the Vígszínház. Now, as part of Christian Spirit Season, Verdi’s work, accompanied by some explanatory texts and video excerpts that set the Defiant Requiem apart from a “traditional” Verdi Requiem, will be played in the Reformed Church on Pozsonyi Street.
Our offer
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.
A 60-minute tour starts every day at 13:30, 15:00 and 16:30 in English. To request a tour in other languages (Italian, Spanish, German, French and Hungarian), please get in touch with the OperaTour team. Please note that the auditorium is closed for visits during rehearsals. Guided tours are not available during performances.
