Andreas Schager live in Budapest

Experience Andreas Schager live on November 15th

Andreas Schager will perform a concert at the Hungarian State Opera’s Auditorium in Budapest on November 15, 2026. Schager is a highly regarded Austrian tenor, internationally celebrated for his interpretations of Mozart and Strauss roles, particularly those requiring *heldentenor* vocal qualities – a powerful, dramatic tenor voice capable of sustaining long phrases and navigating challenging tessituras. His repertoire extends beyond these composers to include Italian and French operatic works, consistently praised for its vocal precision and expressive depth.

The Hungarian State Opera House’s Auditorium, the primary performance space, opened in 1884. Designed by Miklós Ybl in Neo-Renaissance style, it was constructed to rival the Vienna State Opera. The building underwent extensive renovations completed in 2022, restoring many of its original architectural features while modernizing technical capabilities. It is renowned for its excellent acoustics and opulent interior decoration, including frescoes by Mór Than and sculptures by Alajos Stróbl. The auditorium has a seating capacity of approximately 1262 and holds significant cultural importance as a national landmark and central institution within Hungary's musical life. Throughout its history it has hosted performances from leading international singers and orchestras.
