Opera2gether as an ensemble was officially formed in 2018 but it roots back to a 12 years cooperation. Our goal with founding this formation was to renew the way of introducing classical music and experiment with fresh forms of cooperations and interdisciplinar artworks. We believe that artists can’t stay appart from their public but they have to be able to speak their language, react to their feeling and bring the masterpieces of classical and contemporary music and theatre into their everyday life.

The ensemble consists of 2 stable members and various guests from different fields of music, arts and literature.

We rely very seriously on the famous line of the greatest composer of our Motherland, Zoltán Kodály: ‘The music belongs to everyone.’ -Therefore do we develop new ways to the audience of our time. Check out our projects for more detailed information.
