ABOUT
Met Conroy Cupido (bariton), Thembinkosi Magagula (sopraan), Musik Hochschule Nürnberg (kamerorkes), NWU Opera-ensemble (koor)
Die NWU Opera-ensemble tree saam met die kamerorkes van die Neurenbergse musiekskool op in ’n konsertweergawe van opera se mees dinamiese oomblikke. Mozart se Die huwelik van Figaro (bedryf II, finaal) bruis van humor en chaos, terwyl Verdi se La Traviata (bedryf I) skitter met verleiding en ’n onderliggende broosheid. Bekroonde jong kunstenaars onder leiding van Guido Rumstadt bring skoonheid en teaterintensiteit na teatergangers, ’n uitvoering waarin elke noot saakmaak.

With Conroy Cupido (baritone), Thembinkosi Magagula (soprano), Musik Hochschule Nürnberg (chamber orchestra), NWU Opera Ensemble (chorus)
The NWU Opera Ensemble joins the Nürnberg Hochschule Chamber Orchestra in a concert staging of opera’s most electrifying moments. Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro (Act II, finale) spirals through wit, chaos, and razor-sharp ensemble, while Verdi’s La Traviata (Act I) shimmers with seduction and the quiet ache of what is to come. Award-winning young artists, under the baton of Guido Rumstadt, bring urgency, beauty, and theatrical intensity to a performance where every note carries consequence.
