The Guangzhou Symphony Youth Orchestra in concert at the Hungarian State Opera House in Budapest on July 23, in celebration of the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Hungary.
Guangzhou Symphony Youth Orchestra experiences a rhapsody with its first concert in Hungary, Chen Nan reports.
On Andrassy Avenue in the heart of the Hungarian capital Budapest stands a magnificent building: the Hungarian State Opera House. It is one of the country's most important musical institutions, enchanting audiences since its completion in 1884. Its grandeur and acoustics make it one of the finest opera houses in the world.
The Hungarian State Opera House has been the location of many memorable moments. For example in 1888, its then 28-year-old music director, composer Gustav Mahler, conducted the world premiere of his Symphony No 1, signaling the arrival of a new era of music.
