show category: Online performance, opera gala

Performance recorded in partnership with TVR Cluj on 09.03.2019.

The Opera Ball, which has become an emblematic event of the institution through the tradition of the 25 editions, addresses, once again, Opera lovers, a classic waltz invitation, the audience not only being spectators – as usual at the season’s shows -, its contribution being active and by participating in dance. The whole hall is decorated in a festive spirit, in an attempt to emphasize the elegance and refinement of the Vienna Opera Ball. The chairs in the stable are removed, the hall being specially prepared to connect the audience area and the stage. Here, the audience is in the immediate vicinity of the show, enjoying the occasional moments of interaction with the protagonists of the vocal and choreographic moments. The musical program translates through the same concept of elegance, and includes orchestral, solo – vocal and instrumental moments: waltzes, arias, ballads, musical fragments that respect the dancing character, being thus played by stage movement, by the participation of pairs of soloists of the Ensemble of Ballet of the Romanian National Opera in Cluj. In the context of the interpretation of the musical moments by the soloists of the institution together with prestigious guests of this edition – soprano Anita Hartig, tenor Teodor Ilincăi and conductor Vladimir Lungu -, the opportunity is created to give them recognition for professional merits, dedicating the same importance to young people. artistic values ​​that promise a successful career. Therefore, the Excellence Awards are presented, this festive moment being followed by the cocktail break, which is, in essence, an invitation to socialize. The defining element of the evening is the waltz, a delightful challenge to dance with artists who have previously performed on the same stage. Stolen from a phrase that Johann Strauss used to utter at the beginning of Viennese balls, the exhortation Alles walzer! encourages the public to occupy the hall of the Romanian National Opera in Cluj-Napoca, which now becomes a huge dance floor that is used to waltz until after midnight.
