Dialogues des Carmélites (Dialogues of the Carmelites)

At the centre of the story stands a young aristocratic girl, Blanche de la Force, who is driven by fear to flee to the convent. Through her struggles, the composer shows the trial of faith in a work whose finale is perhaps both the most fantastic and the most shocking in the operatic literature.
The work was staged by Ferenc Anger.

Francis Poulenc
Dialogues des Carmélites (Dialogues of the Carmelites)
Opera in three acts, in French, with Hungarian and English surtitles

Serving as the basis for French composer Francis Poulenc's opera was the true story of the martyrs of Compiègne: during the French Revolution, the terreur and the Jacobin dictatorship's antagonism toward the Church resulted in the execution of sixteen Carmelite nuns in Paris on 17 July 1794. Their hair shorn and singing the Veni, Creator Spiritus, the sisters each took their places under the guillotine. (The dictatorship came to an end exactly ten days later, with Robespierre himself being decapitated.)

Our offer


Többnemzetiségű együttes, dalaikat 25 nyelven adják elő. Az amerikai Thomas Lauderdale zongoraművész alapította 1994-ben azzal a céllal, hogy egyesítse a klasszikus-, dzsessz-, latin és popzenei műfajokat, egyedi hangzást teremtve. Debütáló kislemezük, a „Sympathique (Je ne veux pas travailler)” 1997-ben jelent meg, és azonnal bombasiker lett.
