The last concert of the Pászti season ticket – like so many concerts of the 2025/2026 season – once again promises some exciting rarities. The Hungarian National Choir and Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra will present the Hungarian première, with the solo sung by the world-famous French mezzo-soprano Aude Extrémo, of the oratorio La Vierge (The Virgin) by the composer of Manon and Werther, Jules Massenet. First performed in 1880 the work follows the life of Mary from the Annunciation through the wedding at Cana to Good Friday and the Assumption. The French-language performance will be conducted by the general music director of the Hungarian National Philharmonic, György Vashegyi, who takes a keen interest in the neglected masterpieces of French music.
Rarely heard gems worthy of discovery feature prominently on the calendar of the Hungarian National Philharmonic’s 2025/2026 season. In this spirit, there will be special emphasis on a handful of intriguing of works of French Romanticism, including the oratorio entitled La Vierge (The Virgin) by Jules Massenet (1842–1912), who is best known for his highly successful operas Manon and Werther. He composed the piece aged 38 and it was first heard by the audience of the Paris Opera in May 1880. The “sacred legend”, as the genre is more precisely designated, narrates the life of Mary from theAnnunciation and the Wedding at Cana to Good Friday and the Assumption. At the fourth concert of the Pászti season ticket, the work, a Hungarian première, is to be heard in French in four scenes with one intermission. Joining the Hungarian National Choir and Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra, the soloist will be the celebrated French mezzo-soprano Aude Extrémo. The conductor for the evening is György Vashegyi, who, in addition to his profound understanding of early music, has long championed overlooked gems of French music.
