For the opening concert of the 2025/2026 season, the Hungarian National Philhar-monic Orchestra and its Kossuth Prize-winning general music director György Vashegyi invite the audience first and foremost on a pleasant retrospective by per-forming Le Roi d’Ys overture from Lalo’s opera, which will cast our minds back to the recent successful premiere of the work in Hungary. In playing the Dohnányi work Ruralia Hungarica and Bartók’s mystery opera, Bluebeard’s Castle, the orchestra will, as is always the case for season-opening concerts, pay tribute to the lasting values of Hungarian musical culture. In the two soloists for the opera, Dorottya Láng and Gábor Bretz, we welcome two outstanding singers who are also celebrated outside Hungary.
Presented by: Hungarian National Philharmonic
