Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, National Concert Hall Budapest, 8 December
- 8 Dec 2025 7:30 PM
- classical
Founded in 1918, the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra is one of Europe’s top symphonic ensembles and second in line in Holland only to the Amsterdam’s Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, having been led over the past half century by such marvellous conductors as Edo de Waart, Jeffrey Tate, Valery Gergiev and Yannick Nézet-Séguin.
At the helm since 2018 has been the dynamic Israeli Lahav Shani, ...
Mozart's: The Magic Flute, Opera House Budapest, 24 December
- 4 Dec 2025 6:00 PM

The combination of Mozart's marvellous music and Schikaneder's coming-of-age storyline has something to tell us at every stage of life.
No matter if you are discovering or rediscovering the work as a young lover, a parent, or with the wisdom of old age, this blend of the ethereal and riveting entertainment is always thrilling to watch.
Miklós Szinetár's production is suffused with the ...
Donizetti's Don Pasquale, Opera House Budapest, 19 November
- 19 Nov 2025 6:30 PM
- classical
There are evenings when our Opera House cannot perform because rehearsals are ongoing on stage until the evening. There are audience members who can only afford to hear their favourite pieces with a discount. And there are works that, although very popular, cannot be staged every season due to the congestion of productions.
All these issues can be solved at once by the Hungarian State Opera’s ...
Romeo and Juliet, Opera House Budapest, 12 November
- 12 Nov 2025 6:30 PM
- classical
"There's an old, slightly cynical, adage in the theatre that says, when you're out of ideas, produce a Shakespearean work." This is how the ballet's choreographer, László Seregi, put it at the time of the premiere.
However, Romeo and Juliet would thoroughly debunk the self-irony in this quip and go on to become one of Hungary's most famous ballet classics.
Seregi's spectacular and ...
Erika Miklósa, János Balázs, José Cura, National Concert Hall Budapest, 5 November
- 5 Nov 2025 7:30 PM

In recent years, the joint performances by Erika Miklósa and János Balázs have become among the most anticipated events not only of the Cziffra Festival but also in Hungarian classical music circles.
There could be no better occasion to expand their artistic collaboration than the anniversary of the birth of the man the festival is named after.
The evening, which explores the interplay ...
Requiem, Opera House Budapest, 2 November
- 2 Nov 2025 7:00 PM
- classical
Staged oratorio in Latin, with Hungarian, English, and Latin subtitles
In recent years, even decades, it has become a common practice to completely or partially stage certain oratorical works. After Messiah and Matthäus-Passion, nothing could be more suitable to continue the practice than Giuseppe Verdi's Requiem, which is claimed by many, half-seriously, but certainly aptly, to be their ...

Giacomo Puccini, Schicchi 2.0, Opera House Budapest, 16 October
- 16 Oct 2025 2:00 PM
- classical
We can safely say that Gianni Schicchi is one of the most entertaining comic works of opera literature, which stands out even in the opera oeuvre of Giacomo Puccini with its wittiness.
Ingenious moments chase one another both in the vocal and orchestral parts, and also through the text and the incredibly funny situations.
Not many works dare to apply the black, nay morbid humour that ...

- 13 Oct 2025 7:30 PM
- classical
Erik Satie, one of the most original and innovative composers and thinkers of modern French music, passed away in 1925. An inspiration for both younger composers and the sister arts, Satie became one of the most frequently referenced creators of 20th-century experimental music.
This concert of the UMZE Chamber Ensemble focuses on the relationship between Satie and music for cinema, through ...
