Featuring:

Il Pomo d’Oro

Jakub Józef Orliński is one of the most exciting performing artists of our time. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Müpa Budapest audience only encountered him by means of a streamed concert in 2021, but they will get to hear the still-only 34-year-old Polish countertenor – and breakdancer – live in February 2026, and witness why he has been achieving great success for over a decade now. As its discography shows, his partner, Il Pomo d’Oro, reserves a special place in its repertoire for Handel’s operas. The international early music ensemble founded in 2012 will perform one of these works: for the performance of Julius Caesar in Egypt, Orliński, singing the title role, will be joined on stage by internationally renowned singers such as Sabine Devieilhe, Yuriy Mynenko, Beth Taylor, Rebecca Leggett, Alex Rosen, Marco Saccardin, and Rémy Brès-Feuillet.
