KIÉGÉS helyett ÚJ KIHÍVÁSOK - Dr. Csernus Imre előadása Békéscsabán

Based on Ádám Jenő's work by the same title HUNGARIAN CHRISTMAS Singspiel in two tableaux, in Hungarian

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart / Gian Carlo Menotti BASTIEN UND BASTIENNE / THE TELEPHONE One-act operas in Hungarian, with Hungarian subtitles

As it is a latent Kodály season, it seems only fitting that the concert at the OPERA honouring the events of 1956 should feature works by the composer. In that same year, the short-lived Revolutionary Council of Hungarian Intellectuals elected him as its president. Throughout his entire oeuvre, Kodály consistently reinforced Hungarian national identity. The programme gains both colour and a ceremonial character from the hymn-like and dance-infused compositions of his middle and later years.
