Kurt Weill, Budapest Festival Orchestra

Sobre o Evento

Zsolt Jankó conducts the Budapest Festival Orchestra in a performance of Kurt Weill's "Der Jasager".

Elisabeth Hauptmann and Bertolt Brecht's school drama (intended for performance by children) was set to music by Kurt Weill, and the resulting work was published and produced in 1930.

Weill and Brecht’s school opera represents the spirit of reform pedagogy – the intention is to link the sense of community and musical education through joint music making and acting, as well as to popularize a new concept of musical theater.
