J. S. Bach: St Matthew Passion, BWV 244
Featuring: Anna Dennis, Iestyn Davies, Nicholas Pritchard, Hugo Hymas, Florian Störtz, Thomas Bauer – voice, Orchestra and Choir of the Age of Enlightenment
Conductor: Jonathan Cohen
As we approach Easter, the greatest international performers of early music will once again come to Budapest to perform Bach’s stirring music on the Passion of Christ. Arriving with a great line-up of soloists, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, which was founded in 1986, is one of the premier ensembles today that plays period instruments.
The conductor of the concert is a truly versatile artist: Jonathan Cohen is an outstanding cellist, harpsichordist and conductor, and is highly regarded both as a chamber musician and soloist. With Arcangelo, the ensemble he founded in 2010, he has appeared in the world’s most prestigious concert halls, and is a regular contributor to the performances of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. The 2024‒2025 concert season sees him conduct the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra as well through the St Matthew Passion, and make a return to the Glyndebourne Festival Opera in a production of Handel.
This concert of the Bartók Spring is presented by Müpa Budapest as a joint event with Liszt Academy.
The world premiere of László Dubrovay's dance drama Faust, the Damned took place at Müpa Budapest in 2016, as part of the Budapest Spring Festival. This large-scale production inspired by Goethe's masterpiece debuted on the main stage of the National Theatre of Pécs in the 2023/24 season, and will run again in 2024 at Müpa Budapest's Festival Theatre.
This multi-art production draws on the song, dance and literary traditions of Mezőség (Câmpia Transilvaniei), a region in Transylvania with a very exciting and colourful culture. Musically, the show is centred around movements from Mikrokosmos, Béla Bartók’s piano cycle, as well as the melodies from Mezőség that inspired him.
Blessed with a ‘golden voice’, Jonathan Tetelman’s meteoric career has taken him to the world’s leading opera houses, while his records have picked up a succession of awards. We heard him alongside Elīna Garanča in 2021 at Müpa Budapest, and he has since become one of the most sought-after singers of Puccini.
