Under the Magnifying Glass: The First Christmas Masterpiece

This programme is held in Hungarian.

In addition to the popular Hangadó performances, Árpád Tóth, a singing and music teacher known for his accessible lectures, is launching a new series.

The series, entitled Under the Magnifying Glass, is aimed at those who like to delve deeper into the works: the usual 90-minute interactive lectures detail a lesser-known, great piece in many aspects, while the accessible analysis is complemented by the participation of a young, professional vocal ensemble, Capella Columbae.

The first Christmas masterpiece: Heinrich Schütz: Christmas Story

The celebration of Christmas with large-scale musical works originated in the courts of the German principalities during the Reformation. As the first great German master of the early Baroque, Heinrich Schütz can be considered the starting point for these magnificent works. His Christmas oratorio weaves together passages from the Bible about the birth of Jesus, while characterizing the most important characters in the story with evocative musical characters. Let's examine all the important details of this unique work!
