Conductor

Thanks to the spectacular development of our Orchestra and Chorus, since 2020 we have been able to perform Mahler’s enormous creation at the beginning of each season as a sort of preparation. Each year, it is directed by a different conductor. The work was last performed in Hungary 13 years before our grand undertaking: Hungary was first able to perform it in 1983 (!) and it has been played on two occasions since by the ad hoc companies of various artistic institutions. There is hardly a more appropriate piece for launching our Opera Total orchestra series than this powerful symphony, which will involve almost every single one of our musicians, who in themselves could make up a number of orchestras

Symphony No. 8

Hungarian State Opera

"Tenors are a rare species, good tenors even more so, brilliant and good-looking ones are about as rare as white unicorns," writes "Klassik begeistert.de" in 2022 about Jonathan Tetelman. "A star par excellence" is what one reads in the New York Times, "dark-colored tenor timbre" (SZ) and "balsamic verve" (Der Tagesspiegel). The critics' unanimous verdict is also "voice and charisma" when it comes to the 35-year-old Chilean-American opera star Jonathan Tetelman .

On June 15, 2025, visitors to the Alte Oper Frankfurt will experience Jonathan Tetelman, a tenor who can certainly be counted among the most impressive singers of all time. In a solo concert, Tetelman will not only sing the most famous tenor arias by Puccini, Verdi and other composers, but will also treat the audience to the most beautiful Neapolitan melodies. The soloist will be accompanied by the renowned Thuringia Philharmonic Gotha-Eisenach . Frédéric Chaslin will conduct .
