The piece, which had its premiere in 1841, conquered the world with Adolphe Adam's music. This production promises to be really special: performed by the Ballet Company of Győr, this mystical, beautiful and chilling story now comes to new ...

Opinion: Chinese Espionage In Hungary

- current affairs
A few months before Viktor Orbán’s landslide victory in May 2010, I wrote an article about “the Hungarian right’s foreign policy offensive.” At the time, Orbán’s return to power seemed pretty well assured, and I sensed that not too many governments were looking forward to his reemergence on the international scene.

Thirteen years after a thrilling performance, John Eliot Gardiner returns with the St John Passion to Müpa Budapest. If he is the doyen of the early music movement, the world-famous conductor continues to be characterized by a tireless curiosity and energetic attitude.

The Capriccio for piano and orchestra was composed by Stravinsky between 1926 and 1929. The piece was revised in 1949.
Like the Piano Concerto with wind accompaniment, Stravinsky composed this virtuoso piece to make a living when he was forced to emigrate to Western Europe after the Russian revolution. In the Capriccio, the composer continues the easy-going tone of the concluding movement of ...

- community & culture
This lyrical drama in French, with Hungarian and English subtitles, has excellent reviews - such as, "János Szikora’s production can be regarded as an embodiment of the principle that “less is more” as he steers Goethe’s story with a sure hand but minimal invention to the end".
