Dániel Csengery's work for the stage was an award-winner of Müpa Budapest's 2020 Composition Competition, in the children's opera category. The piece is based on the well-known fairy tale, and the composer, whose work for theatre and film includes music for Liza, the Fox-Fairy, drew inspiration from the character of Aliz: like the industrious girl, he is attracted to unusual and risky situations and is keen to explore the unknown. This is colourful music, inventively orchestrated, upbeat and melodic, with spicy harmonies, and is certain to enchant the heart and ears of an open-minded child, while offering a complex experience to adults who know the world of opera well. Directed by János Szemenyei, a versatile talent of musical theatre, and replete with great roles, Frau Holle features a cast of excellent artists, so there is plenty to keep new and old lovers of the genre immersed in the universe of this fresh play.
