Bel Canto with Eva Mei

Following a couple of highly successful shows of late featuring tenor Ramon Vargas, and sopranos Erika Miklósa, and Mária Celeng, the Győr Philharmonic Orchestra is about to host on Richter Hall's stage yet another internationally acclaimed soprano, Eva Mei, who has already won over audiences at the most prestigeous opera houses of the world.

Her impressive career has kicked off at the Viennese State Opera followed by several performances at famous opera houses like The Royal Hall in London, the Scala in Milan, or the Berlin Opera just to mention the most well-known ones. On March 3, 2017, she is set to walk onstage in our city of Győr to sing some of the most gorgeous "bel canto" ("beautiful singing" in Italian) arias by Donizetti and Verdi, two of the greatest masters of the genre.

Notably, the concert will be conducted Mrs. Mei's husband, South African-born former violinist, now conductor Gerard Korsten who has already made his great Győr debut concert with GYPO two years ago.

Sounds like an awesome idea to come along that night to listen to some of the gems of the Italian opera repertoire.

Tickets can be purchased at Richter Hall as well as through the network of "Jegymester" on the Internet.
