On 23 December 2020, highlights from Mozart final opera, Die Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute) were streamed from the Sándor Hevesi Stage of the Eiffel Art Studios from 8:00 p.m. on Facebook and Origo.hu.
The combination of Mozart's marvellous music and Schikaneder's coming-of-age storyline has something to tell us at every stage of life. No matter if you are discovering or rediscovering the work as a young lover, a parent, or with the wisdom of old age, this blend of the ethereal and riveting entertainment is always thrilling to watch.
Highlights of the opera featuring costumes by Rita Velich were staged by Mária Harangi.
