Hungarian musicians have been able to perform the largest-scale work by the leader of the Second Viennese School only on one occasion, in 1998, under the instruction of Zoltán Kocsis. Alongside Mahler's Symphony No. 8 and Britten's War Requiem, the opus is one of the works that require the largest ensemble in classical music. Gurre-Lieder, Arnold Schönberg's dramatic cantata, composed 150 years ago in 1874, is the imposing final piece of post-romanticism and also a turning point in his own career as a composer. The truly strange and special score, which uniquely combines the influences of Wagner, Richard Strauss and Mahler, is being studied by more than 300 artists for this occasion: and not only the soloists of the OPERA Orchestra and Chorus, but the international renowned Hungarian conductor Henrik Nánási.

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.
