Cherubini: Les Abencérages
Concert-version performance
- Early Music Festival
Ticket prices
For today's music listeners, Luigi Cherubini is just a name, and most of them are not even aware that the composer, although he studied in his native Italy, exerted his greatest influence on the French music world. György Vashegyi and his two ensembles, the Purcell Choir and the Orfeo Orchestra - in tandem with an international cast of soloists - will now be presenting one of the composer's major operas, 209 years after its Paris world première. The theme, like in so many other operas, is conflict in love and politics.
The performance is a co-production of Müpa Budapest, Palazzetto Bru Zane and Orfeo Music Foundation with the support of Haydneum - Hungarian Centre for Early Music.
The concert will be preceded, at 6 pm, by an introductory presentation by Alexandre Dratwicki entitled Prelude in the Glass Hall (in French with Hungarian interpretation). The program will be open to anyone holding a ticket for the performance, but subject to prior registration on our website.
