Wagner
Parsifal – festive musical stage play in three acts (German-language performance, with Hungarian surtitles)

Known for her sensitive interpretation of roles, the Finnish soprano Camilla Nylund will once again demonstrate in this evening of lieder what an outstanding performer of the German repertoire she is.

Come hear the most popular melodies, arias and orchestral excerpts from Richard Wagner’s operas at the closing event of the Budapest Wagner Days festival! We first held this highlights concert in 2023 and are now presenting it for the third time, in order to welcome not only fans, but also those who are just getting to know the magic of Wagner’s passionate style.

The life of the title character of Wagner’s early opera Tannhäuser, based on the hero of medieval legend, is a struggle between sensuality and asceticism.

Although Wagner's mature masterpiece, which he wrote after Tristan but before completing the Ring, is officially a comic opera and doesn't stint on entertainment, it is nevertheless much more complex, dealing with youth and old age, love and friendship, art and craft, as well as innovation and conservativism.
