Salome opera tickets, Magyar Állami Operaház (Hungarian State Opera House), Budapest

In the inner courtyard of his place, the tetrarch Herod Antipas, ruler of Galilee and Peraea by the grace of the Roman Emperor, holds the prophet Jokanaan captive and sealed off from the world. As the head of an oppositional sect, Jokanaan poses a political danger to the tetrarch. The prophet attacks the dissolute life of the rulers. But Herod, secretly in fear of the prophet, is unwilling to have him put to death.

A banquet is held in the palace. Salome, daughter of Herod’s second wife Herodias from her first marriage, flees the celebrations. When she hears the prophet’s voice, she longs to see him. She wheedles the captain Narraboth into disobeying the tetrarch’s orders and fetching the prisoner out of the cistern in which he is imprisoned. She is fascinated by Jokanaan’s stance, which seems like the antithesis of the mode of life of her own surroundings. But she knows only one way to identify with the new: that of taking sexual possession. Jokanaan refuses her advances.

Searching for Salome, Herod arrives in the courtyard with Herodias and his entourage. He asks Salome to dance for him, swearing to give her whatever she wants. After the dance, Salome demands the head of Jokanaan. The tetrarch, aghast at the prospect of execution, offers her jewels and other treasures, but finally has to fulfill his oath and her desire. The executioner brings Salome Jokanaan’s head. Salome’s bloody revenge is followed by her realization that, with Jokanaan’s death, she has destroyed herself. Herod gives the order to kill Salome.
The State Opera was built to coincide with Friedrich II idealistic view that the arts, science and politics should be symbolised through great architecture. He commissioned his friend and architect, Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff with the job and it was built by 1744. On August 18, 1843 the Opera house was destroyed by fire. A new opera building, with Carl Friedrich Langhans as architect, was inaugurated the following Autumn. In the 1920's the Opera house underwent a major reconstruction and reopened in April 1928. Many famous people have graced the stage such as Felix von Weingartner, Karl Muck, Richard Strauss, and Leo Blech.

Onegin opera tickets, Magyar Állami Operaház (Hungarian State Opera House), Budapest

As the characterization of the opera as "lyrical scenes" shows, the poet offers no substantial work, but follows closely, often even word for word, Pushkin's epic tale, with which one must be fully acquainted -- as is the case with everybody in Russia -- in order to be able to follow the opera properly.

Act I.

Eugene Onegin has been called from a wild life of pleasure to his sick uncle, of whose property he takes possession after the uncle's sudden death. He has brought with him from the big city a profound satiety of all enjoyments and a deep contempt for the society of mankind in his solitary country seat. Here, however, he forms a friendship for a young fanatic, the poet Lenski.

Through him he is introduced to Larina, a woman who owns an estate. Her two daughters, Olga and Tatiana, correspond to the double nature of their mother, whose youth was a period of sentimentality in which she allowed herself to be affected like others by Richardson's novels, raved over Grandison, and followed the wild adventures of Lovelace with anxious thrills.

Life later had made her rational, altogether too rational and insipid. Olga now has become a cheerful, superficial, pleasureful silly young girl; Tatiana, a dreamer whose melancholy is increasing through reading books which her mother had once used. Lenski is betrothed to Olga. Tatiana recognizes at her first sight of Onegin the realization of her dreams. Her heart goes out to meet him and in her enthusiasm she reveals all her feelings in a letter to him. Onegin is deeply stirred by this love; a feeling of confidence in mankind that he had not known for such a long time awakens in him.

But he knows himself too well. He knows that every faculty as a husband is departing from him. And now he considers it his duty not to disappoint this maiden soul, to be frank. He refuses her love. He takes the blame on himself, but he would not have been the worldly wise man if his superiority to the simple country child had not been emphasized chiefly on this account. But Tatiana only listens to the refusal, she is very unhappy. Onegin remains her ideal, who now will be still more solitary, in spite of it.

Act II.

Tatiana's name-day is being celebrated with a big hall. Onegin goes there on Lenski's invitation. The stupid company with their narrow views about him vex him so much that he seeks to revenge himself on Lenski for it, for which he begins courting Olga. Lenski takes the jest in earnest; it comes to a quarrel between the friends Lenski rushes out and sends Onegin a challenge. Social considerations force Onegin to accept the challenge; a dueling fanatic landlord, Saretsky stirs Lenski's anger so severely that a reconciliation is not possible.

This part in Pushkin's work is the keenest satire, an extraordinarily efficacious mockery of the whole subject of dueling. There is derision on Onegin's side, too, for he chooses as his second his coachman Gillot. But the duel was terribly in earnest; Lenski falls, shot through by his opponent's bullet. (This scene recalls a sad experience of the poet himself; for he himself fell in a duel by the bullet of a supercilious courtier, Georg Anth's-Heckeren, who died in Alsace in 1895).

Aida opera tickets, Magyar Állami Operaház (Hungarian State Opera House), Budapest

Verdi wrote Aida for celebrations of the opening of the Suez Canal, and the result is a splendid, festive opera with demanding but beautiful solo and choral parts. The Egyptian army commander Radames hopes that his successful military campaign will allow him to marry the young Aida. She is a slave in Egypt, but what nobody knows is that she is the daughter of the Ethiopian king Amonasro. And it is against him that Radames will wage a war. However, Radames is also loved by the Egyptian princess Amneris, who is promised to him by her father as a reward for victory. Aida realises that Amneris will never give up Radames and wants to flee with him. At her father’s request she leads Radames to reveal which route the next attack on the Ethiopians will take. Radames realises his treason and allows himself to be arrested, but allows Aida and her father to escape. For this deed Radames is to be entombed alive, but in the dark chamber he encounters Aida, who wants to bear his fate with him. The opera is rich in beautiful melodies with exotic motives and in effective scenes and arias.

Die Fledermaus opera tickets, Magyar Állami Operaház (Hungarian State Opera House), Budapest

Die Fledermaus remains a masterpiece among operettas with scenes, music: and style that would not be out of place in the world of grand opera.

The original source for Die Fledermaus is a farce by German playwright Julius Roderich Benedix (1811-1873), Das Gefãngnis (The Prison). Another source is a French vaudeville play, Le réveillon, by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halãvy.

This was first translated by Carl Haffner into a non-musical play to be produced in Vienna. However, the peculiarly French custom of the rãveillon (a midnight supper party) caused problems, which were solved by the decision to adapt the play as a libretto for Jo
