“16th-century Spain. State and church are engaged in a ruthless and devastating struggle for dominance over the people. Every rebellion and every attempt to establish a humane social order is strangled at birth. Humanistic ideals are doomed to death from the start, and those professing them find themselves being burnt at the stake by the Inquisition. The greatest victim in all of this is none other than the king’s son, the prince Don Carlo. He is the one who dares to love, to step up for the freedom of the oppressed people and to challenge both the church and the state, shaking up their system of power…” This is the take of Frank Hilbrich, the director of the production, who adds that “Verdi portrays this painful recognition in Schiller’s stage play Don Carlos with grandiose music. There is no other composer for whom individual freedom could have taken on such importance. With this opera, he paints a frightening picture of human civilisation.”
Verdi took Schiller’s drama, a work whose nearly every line is permeated with social and political ideas, and poured it into music in a way that emphasises individual emotions and spiritual vibrations. Hilbrich, a director who has long been recognised across the German-speaking world, earned his international reputation chiefly with Wagnerian productions, as well as with contemporary operas.

Our offer
Adott egy fiatal férfi, akinek az apja meghalt, az anyja pedig szinte azonnal újból férjhez ment. Gyanús. Hamletben zavaros indulatok dolgoznak, és miközben kétségbeesetten próbál beszélni arról, amit érez, hirtelen olyan helyzetben találja magát, amiből nem látszik kiút. Jó lenne kiszállni pedig, és elmenni innen messzire, mert ha maradunk, abba csak beleőrülni lehet. Beszélgetni kéne, de nincs idő, nincs energia, hogy jobban odafigyeljünk egymásra. Ennek pedig – sejthetjük – nem lesz jó vége.
This Christmas, the Capital Circus of Budapest brings to life one of the most beautiful and beloved Grimm tales: Mother Holle — the story of two girls and their adventurous journey through the Otherworld, their trials, and their coming of age.
