The OBC season completes their cycle of Bartok's stage works with The Wooden Prince, a ballet that has enjoyed success ever since the day of its premiere in 1917. A prince, a princess and a fairy star in a work laden with symbolism. It is reflection on art and the role of the artist featuring a diverse range of music, from the playful spirit at the beginning to the loving passion at the end, as well as the marvelously grotesque dance performed by the wooden puppet.

The music of Ramon Humet, this season’s guest composer, returns to the lecterns of the OBC. The program includes a visit by Kian Soltani, a young Austrian talent renowned internationally since he was selected by Daniel Barenboim to be the soloist of the Divan Orchestra.
