Opera Gala on Carnival Saturday

… She was captivated by Tristan's gaze, embraced by his arm,
And hot love pain surged through her veins!
(From "The Elixir of Love" by G. Donizetti)

When an enchanting, beautifully lyrical soprano meets a baritone as a heartbreaker, it’s time for another opera gala in Seitenstetten! This evening will always revolve around human relationships – from deep love and infatuation to heartache and secret tears. The protagonists will once again span a wide musical arc through the opera repertoire, providing magnificent elevated entertainment.

Elevated entertainment featuring:
Florina Ilie – Soprano
Ejnar Čolak – Baritone
Manfred Schiebel – Piano
Moderation: Josef Penzendorfer
