About

At Theater an der Wien Stanisław Moniuszko’s Polish national opera Halka is performed by a superb cast including Corinne Winters ('devotedly') , Piotr Beczała ('vocally outstanding') and Tomasz Konieczny ('his acting is piercing') (Der Standard). The Polish leading team, above all director Mariusz Treliński, puts the plot into a supercooled crime aesthetic. The ORF Radio Symphonie-Orchester Wien under the baton of Łukasz Borowicz plays with perceptible delight. 'A gripping opera evening' (Wiener Zeitung).

Reviews

September 2022

by the time we reach the grand ensembles Łukasz Borowicz’s conducting has all guns blazing, his orchestra putting over the music’s defining dance rhythms with lightness and point, if not ideal Slavonic pungency...The vocal star is Piotr Beczała, as Halka’s childhood friend and admirer Jontek...Its bleak tone will not be to all tastes, but this grippingly-staged Halka is much too good to ignore.
