Muta Imago (IT): Madeleine, Trafó Budapest, 2 - 3 March
- 1 Mar 2012 8:01 AM
- entertainment
"Dream and fear are the constitutive elements of Madeleine’s world. Together with the performers. Together with a scenography made of thresholds, projections, trickeries, transparencies, reflections. Together with fog, smoke and wind. Because we feel invaded.

"This performance features authentic ("puro") flamenco in its various styles (alegrías, seguiriyas, bulerías etc.), including flamenco dance, dance theatre and concert elements. The ensemble makes use of sophisticated harmony between the very expressive art of flamenco dance and music to weave its stories, while always ensuring that dance, music and light are never ends in themselves, but bring ...
Portico Quartet (UK), Festival Theatre Budapest, 25 January
- 23 Jan 2012 8:00 AM
- entertainment
"The sound of the Portico Quartet, a foursome from London and Southampton, is distinguished by the use of the hang, an instrument belonging to the idiophone class of instruments, which although closely resembling a gamelan gong or perhaps even a steelpan, is in reality not an organic instrument, but rather a UFO-shaped invention by a Swiss company. (Kornél Horváth is known to play this instrument ...
Invitation: Pécs Ballet: Othello, Festival Theatre Budapest, 20 January
- 19 Jan 2012 8:00 AM
- community & culture
"Dance is an emotional art form. The instrument and messenger is the body of the dancer, expressed through his or her mental and physical effort. The story of Othello staged in a dance performance is an excellent opportunity for both the creator and the dancer. It explores the full spectrum of human emotions, reflected most powerfully through the fatal drama of Othello and Desdemona's true love.

'The Magic Flute', Palace Of Arts Budapest, 15 January
- 12 Jan 2012 8:00 AM
- entertainment
"There are always several layers to any masterpiece and this certainly applies to The Magic Flute, one of the most popular and frequently performed operas ever written. Littered with a plethora of masonic symbols, its plot can be interpreted as an allegorical and vibrant fantasy story – so it is no coincidence that it has been performed for children for decades.

Pastoral Opera In Two Acts, Opera House Budapest, 12 December
- 3 Dec 2010 12:00 AM
- community & culture
“Ascanio in Alba is a really unknown one even among Mozart’s unknown operas, but I do believe in this piece. This is a rarity which is only performed here in Europe. A young “lion” shows its nails in it, who wanted to succeed as an opera composer. And what happened? He was commissioned to compose an opera. And he immediately exercised some irony on this form of art. In my view this piece is like ...
