In the series entitled Song recitals on Dalszínház Street, German tenor Gerhard Siegel and Chicago-born Gabriel Dobner await fans on 5 November, 2015. The programme features songs by Richard Strauss, Hugo Wolf and Arnold Schönberg.
Access to the concerts, which start at 4 pm, will be via the Royal Staircase from the Dalszínház utca entrance to the left of the Opera House. From there, our 80 or so guests will proceed up onto the marble colonnade, where we will be waiting with a glass of Hungarian wine selected by our gastronomic consultant Ildikó Káli, president of the Hungarian Association of Sommeliers. Suitably refreshed, we will move on to the Bertalan Székely Hall, resplendent with its frescoes and paintings, marvellous wood panelling and intimate lighting.
