Montéclair: Jephté - Hungarian première
- Early Music Festival
Ticket prices
The figure of Jephthah is familiar from the Old Testament's Book of Judges. When discussing musical treatments of the story, music listeners would previously always think of the oratorios by Carissimi or Handel. This concert offers the opportunity to encounter another musical setting that came eight decades after Carissimi's Jephte and two decades before Handel's Jephta.
Concert performance
Co-production of Müpa Budapest and Centre de musique baroque de Versailles with the support of Institut Français de Budapest and Orfeo Music Foundation Budapest. Performance material is edited by Centre de musique baroque de Versailles.
Prior to the concert, Benoît Dratwicki and György Vashegyi will introduce the work to ticket holders in the Festival Theatre from 6 pm. The event is open to ticket holders to the concert, subject to the capacity of the venue. The presentation will be in French with a Hungarian interpreter.
