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 ...

The Girl of the Golden West, Opera House Budapest, 9 May
- 9 May 2025 6:00 PM
- classical
After watching David Belasco's play The Girl of the Golden West on his 1907 visit to New York, Puccini resolved to set this somewhat unusual love story of the Wild West to music on the opera stage.
The dramatic material proved to be a good choice, with an effectively moving plot that takes viewers to the denouement with a sure hand.
The character of Minnie is also a highly suitable ...
Giacomo Puccini: Butterfly in Taiwan, Opera House Budapest, 2 April
- 2 Apr 2025 5:03 AM
- classical
The tale of Cio-Cio san and Pinkerton stands out as one of the finest romantic tragedies ever written. Convinced that her 'temporary marriage' is not only legally binding, but also founded on reciprocated feelings, 'Madama' Butterfly loses every last shred of hope, until death offers the only possible escape.
'Had it not been set in an exotic locale far from here,' went the commentary on the ...
Puccini's Manon Lescaut, Opera House Budapest, 30 January
- 30 Jan 2025 7:00 PM
- classical
Puccini's imagination was captivated by the love story of Manon Lescaut and the Chevalier des Grieux, in which the protagonists defy social norms and the accepted moral law in order to be with each other, as a similar tale of passion had taken place in the composer's own life: his affair with Elvira Bonturi, a liaison that stirred enormous emotions in him but which, owing to the strictness of ...
La Bohème Opera Performance, Opera Budapest, 5 January
- 5 Jan 2025 6:30 PM
- classical
Opera in three parts, four acts, in Italian, with Hungarian, English, and Italian subtitles.
Some operas are legendary. None more so than Puccini's work telling the tale of young bohemians in Paris, in which one of the most beautiful romances in operatic literature begins with a burnt-out candle and a misplaced key.
There are also legendary opera productions, such as this one directed by ...
Puccini's Turandot, Opera House Budapest, 19 November
- 13 Nov 2024 6:30 PM
- classical
The Chinese princess Turandot swears that she will not marry any man – except for the one who can solve her three-question riddle. Giacomo Puccini's final, unfinished opera tackles fairy-tale and socio-philosophical questions at the same time. The OPERA’s new production is staged by acclaimed choreographer Dóra Barta – a woman interpreting the most mysterious female title role in the world opera. ...
