'Wherever you open the score, you feel the wind blowing at you,' commented an elder contemporary of Richard Wagner when discussing Der fliegende Holländer. This sentence, although intended as a criticism, actually highlighted one of the greatest strengths of this romantic opera premiered in 1843: the apparent presence of the storm and the sea, unbridled natural forces that make the opera so unique. The accursed Dutchman, who can only step ashore every seven years, is the first of Wagner's heroes to yearn for the miracle of redemption through love. The tale of a woman's extreme sacrifice and a man carrying the crushing burden of his fate extends well beyond the traditional boundaries of German romantic opera.

Our offer


Iván Fischer was requested by the Berlin Konzerthaus to compose an opera for children based on Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s world-famous picture book, The Gruffalo. The humorous opera now premieres in Hungary in translation by Ádám Nádasdy. The production is recommended for children between the ages of 3 and 10.

Will you come at midnight and listen to some classical music while lounging on a beanbag, just an arm’s length from the musicians?

For almost a quarter of a century, the Festival Orchestra’s program series for children has brought a high-quality classical musical experience to the youngest. The orchestra’s rehearsal room not only serves experimenting with the tiniest details of the symphonic pieces to be performed or playing chamber music, but also as the venue for educating the next generation of classical music lovers.
