Musik von Zuhause

English, Czech, German, French, Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian, Italian, Greek and Turkish. These are the languages that will be sung in the premieres of the 2025/26 season. Opera as a genre, on the other hand, has a world language in music with which it can communicate universally, directly and across language barriers. The opening concert with the State Orchestra, the State Opera Chorus, the ensemble and guests on the first day of the new season will focus on a wide variety of music from home. And the great thing is: when music, experiences and memories are shared, they become more, not less.

We have put together a varied program for you, including Bartók's passionate Romanian Folk Dances and Debussy's soulful Clair de lune. Our award-winning State Opera Chorus will also be performing the "Pilgrims' Chorus" from Wagner's Tannhäuser and the "Chorus of the Reapers" from Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin. Four vocal soloists from our ensemble will also be there - with sometimes heartfelt, sometimes passionate songs. And last but not least, Smetana's popular Moldau always sounds a bit like coming home.

Music by Franz Schubert, Peter Tchaikovsky, Bedřich Smetana, Richard Wagner, Claude Debussy, Hanns Eisler and others.
