70 years of opera in Denmark! The Danish National Opera invites audiences to a glamorous and entertaining evening for both opera lovers and opera virgins
The Danish National Opera invites its audiences on a musical operatic journey with excerpts from many of the operas performed by the Danish National Opera since 1947.
Established in 1947, the Danish National Opera will celebrate its 70th anniversary in 2017. To mark the occasion, the Opera is putting on a gala performance showcasing Scandinavian guest stars, the Danish National Opera Chorus and the regional orchestras.
The gala performance will present the audience with excerpts from the broad repertoire of the Danish National Opera through the years. New audiences can begin their adventures in the world of opera on these evenings, which offer tasty titbits from grand operas with magnificent music, drama and sumptuous costumes. Eva-Maria Melbye is responsible for both staging and set design on this spectacular occasion.
