Bernstein: West Side Story
Staged concert performance – on the 50th anniversary of the European première
17 March 2008 Monday
6:30 pm - 9 pm
Béla Bartók National Concert Hall
Budapest Spring Festival
Sets Kiégő Izzók

Featuring: Erika Miklósa, Kata Janza, Attila Dolhai – singers Budapest Concert Orchestra MÁV Conductor: László Makláry Visual effects: Kiégő Izzók Director: Miklós Gábor Kerényi The world’s theatre-loving audiences owe this evergreen stage production, now a cult musical, to the inspired co-operation of Leonard Bernstein, Arthur Laurents and Stephen Sondheim. The first European performance was given in London’s West End in 1958 and it has been staged in Hungary since 1969. The special feature of this concert performance is that it places the emphasis on the great musical merits of Bernstein’s work rather than on the staging, while the Kiégő Izzók team uses inventive projection and various visual elements to add colour to the concert.
