Dohnányi Orchestra Budafok Presented by Liszt Academy

The oeuvre of Bartók was in itself a milestone in the search for a way forward in the 20th century, but within that The Wooden Prince was a particular special moment. Just as the irreconcilable difference between man and woman and the general darkness of their relationship is formulated in Duke Bluebeard’s Castle, so the resignation and sacrifice undertaken for each other in the hope of enduring love is played out in The Wooden Prince.
