Tchaikovsky: Eugene Onegin

At the heart of Pushkin’s classic lies unrequited love and the pursuit of human dignity. Although Tchaikovsky was drawn to such themes and often set them to music, he was initially reluctant to adapt Eugene Onegin into an opera. He believed that the literary work’s primary value lay in its lyrical beauty rather than its dramatic plot—something he felt was essential for the stage. In the end, he chose to create not a traditional opera, but what he called “lyrical scenes.” The three acts each portray a key moment from Pushkin’s work. The first act stages the awakening of Tatiana’s love and the writing of her famous letter. The second revisits the tragedy of the duel between Onegin and Lensky. The third presents the elegant ball where the now-mature Tatiana meets her former love, Onegin, who, though he now longs for her, finds he is too late.

Tchaikovsky’s music embraces the spirit of Russian Romanticism. Alongside the poetic language, the music is richly Slavic—emotional, flowing, and deeply expressive. Conductor János Kovács, who has been leading opera productions for nearly half a century, brings deep knowledge, skill, and undiminished artistry to this masterpiece.

Spend an unforgettable evening immersed in a world of love, romance, emotion, and melody!
