Dozens of internationally acclaimed opera singers and opera theatres have played on the festival, and in the future it is our intention to make our festival even more attractive for a wider audience. The festival has become more and more popular throughout the years. Last year we registered 130 000 visitors all together at the different locations and events of the festival.
Last summer a Swedish metal band, Therion played an opera-metal show of this kind with incredible success. Fans came to see this very special performance from various places in Europe, and the show gained a worldwide attention. The Festival is planning another special concert with Dutch symphonic metal band Epica this year. The „Epica: The Classical Conspiracy Show†is going to be a very unique event, because the Dutch symphonic-metal band will play a very specific musical programme.
They will perform classical pieces from Mozart, Dvorak, Verdi, Orff, Prokofiev, Grieg, Vivaldi in Epica’s style and of course symphonic versions of Epica songs. Some Epica songs will be rewritten - to make it more bombastic - only for this event. Moreover there will be other surprises as well.
