Ybl 212: My homeland, my homeland, you mean everything to me
Hungarian aria recital
Details
In Brief
It has been a cherished tradition for years that the Hungarian State Opera dedicates an evening to Miklós Ybl, the architect of the magnificent Opera House (and numerous other buildings in Hungary). This time, alongside commemorating the architect who was born 212 years ago, the timing makes it fitting to honour our national holiday with a worthy program as well. On the eve of 15 March, the aria evening My Homeland, My Homeland, You Are My Everything will take place, featuring outstanding singers and even notable members of the Opera Studio.
