It was primarily as a composer of opera that Sándor Szokolay (1921-2013) established his international reputation. His dramatic works invariably made use of demanding literary source material, and his three-act opera Hamlet was no exception: the libretto was compiled by the composer himself from János Arany's masterful translation of Shakespeare. The work is characterised by a classical simplicity periodically enriched by ritualistic passages. Szokolay makes his Hamlet one for the ages by merely abridging, rather than altering, Shakespeare and Arany's text, thus preserving the philosophical message of the world's best-known drama.

A century ago, the world first encountered this remarkable opus, a work that soon became one of the cornerstones of twentieth-century musical innovation. Premiered in 1926, the singspiel is a milestone in Hungarian music history: its composer, Zoltán Kodály, fulfilled his aspiration to elevate Hungarian folk song of ancient origin to the same status as classical music, by virtue of its equivalent values, placing it on the stage of the nation’s Opera House.
The OPERA Orchestra’s official season-opening concert featuring monumental works is a real treat for classical music lovers.
