Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Monteverdi, the Italian master of the early Baroque period, was the first great figure in opera, as well as the most important Italian practitioner of the genre of madrigals. Like many other composers, he occasionally blurred the boundaries between genres, sometimes making his madrigals suitable for the stage and certain excerpts from his operas lyrical compositions that could also be sung independently. This is the basis for this concert by Christina Pluhar's ensemble L'Arpeggiata when they present an 90-minute theatrical production compiled from works by the composer and his contemporaries at Müpa Budapest's Early Music Festival.
The concert will be preceded, at 6.00 pm, by an introductory presentation by János Mácsai entitled Prelude in the Glass Hall. The program will be open to anyone holding a ticket for the performance, but subject to prior registration on our website.
