Hungarian State Folk Ensemble: Wonderful Nativity

Evoking the excitement of anticipation and waltzing with angels in the bright starlight, to playfully immerse yourself in the Christmas wonderland. The Hungarian State Folk Ensemble’s nativity programme counts down to the night of the birth of Jesus, with scenes that are sometimes comic and other times heart-warming.

The joyful period comes to life in this marvellous world of games, Christian traditions and stories drawn from folk customs, and it is no secret that we might even see a snowman, snow fairy, or ‘táltos’ shaman horse break out into dance now and then!

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

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.
