Verdi’s Nabucco was a milestone in the composer’s life as he achieved his first genuinely sweeping success with this opera. He was enchanted by the powerful Biblical story of the libretto, and this magic will stay with us foreverthrough the depths and passion of music. The chorus “Va, pensiero...” became an anthem of liberty immediately after the premiere in 1842. In his spectacular direction, Gergely Kesselyák presents the shifts in the balance of powers and religions, the story of the demolition of the First Temple and the Babylonian captivity embedded in the eternal cycles of changing eras in world history.

At age 27, Verdi resolved to never write opera again. He was at a low point in his life, both professionally and personally: His comic opera, Un giorno di regno, had failed, and around the same time he had to bury his two young children, and then his wife. After some convincing by his agent, he read Solera’s libretto, Nabucco, and by spring of 1842, all of Milan was humming “Va, pensiero...”
The central point of the opera stands at a historical crossroads: value systems are changing and life is coming under the control of interrelationships starkly contasting previously in place. In the crosshairs of this conflict between vanquisher and vanquished unfolds a family drama in which the music of the Italian master leads the listener through the entire range of possible emotions. When performed, the work lifts the story out of the biblical era and places it into the realm of the cosmic.

Act I
For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good, saith the Lord: it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire. (Jeremiah 21:10)
Jerusalem. The Hebrews pray for aid in the temple of Solomon as Nabucco, King of Babylon, advances on the city. The High Priest Zaccaria arrives with Nabucco's daughter Fenena, who is being held captive by the Hebrews. He reassures his people that the Almighty will not abandon them. Ismaele and Fenena, who had fallen in love with each other during the period of the Babylonian captivity, remain alone together. He had escaped with help from the girl, who then followed him to Jerusalem. Their discussion is interrupted by the appearance of Abigaille, Fenena's half-sister. She too is in love with Ismaele, whose people she will deliver from Nabucco if only he will reciprocate her feelings, but the youth rejects her offer. The Hebrews retreat to the sanctuary as Nabucco leads his troops into the temple, where Zaccaria threatens to kill Fenena. Ismaele disarms the high priest and hands Fenena over to Nabucco, who orders that the holy edifice be destroyed.

Act II
Behold, the whirlwind of the Lord goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked. (Jeremiah 30:23)
Babylon. In Nabucco's absence, Fenena is serving as regent. Abigaille learns that she is descended from slaves. Calculating that Fenena will soon be ruling over Babylon at Ismaele's side, she swears revenge against her sister and father. Fenena releases the Hebrew captives. The High Priest of Baal declares this to be treason and places Abigaille on the throne, spreading the rumour that Nabucco has died. Zaccaria prays for the Babylonians to give up idolatry. Fenena converts to Judaism. Abigaille and the High Priest of Baal seize her, and the new ruler is about to coronate herself when Nabucco enters. He takes the crown away from her and declares that he is not only a king, he is also God. After he is suddenly struck down by a vengeful bolt of lightning, the victorious Abigaille takes the crown for herself.

Act III
Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation. (Jeremiah 50:39)
In the hanging gardens of Babylon, Abigaille is being exalted by her court. The High Priest of Baal is urging for the Hebrews to be executed, but before the Queen can order this, the still raving Nabucco appears. Abigaille tricks him into delivering the death sentence, which also applies to Fenena. To no avail, Nabucco pleads for his child's life. On the banks of the Euphrates, the Hebrew captives dream of returning home. Zaccaria prophesies their liberation and the downfall of Babylon.

Act IV
Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Baal is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces. (Jeremiah 50:2)
From his prison cell, Nabucco watches as the Hebrews, together with Fenena, are led in for execution. In his despair, he prays to the God of Israel for forgiveness, vowing that he and his people will take up the Jewish faith. His mind suddenly unclouded, he assembles his troops and leads them to regain the throne and save his daughter's life. Fenena is praying for forgiveness in heaven when Nabucco rushes in and halts the execution. Repenting of her deed, Abigaille poisons herself and begs God for forgiveness. Nabucco converts to Judaism, grants the captives their freedom and sends them on their way home to rebuild the temple. Jews and Babylonians together praise the Lord.

Tisztelt Vendégeink!

 

A tavaly novemberi párizsi eseményeket követően több terrorakció történt a világban, legutóbb 2016. március 22-én újra Európában, ezúttal Brüsszelben történtek robbantásos terrormerényletek, melyek során sokan meghaltak illetve megsebesültek.

 Az áldozatok hozzátartozóinak gyászában osztozunk, a fizikai és lelki sérülteknek mielőbbi gyógyulást kívánunk.

 

Magyarország kormánya a párizsi támadásokat követően azonnal emelt szintű terrorfenyegetettség készültséget rendelt el az állampolgárok és az országunkban tartózkodó turisták fokozott védelme érdekében. A Papp László Budapest Sportarénát üzemeltető Budapesti Sportcsarnok Üzemeltető Kft. vezetése is megemelte azonnal az Aréna biztonsági védelmét, melyet azóta is – visszavonásig - folyamatosan fenntartunk korábbi, 2015.november 14-ei Közleményünk szerint.

Intézkedéseinket – visszajelzéseik alapján – Önök döntően pozitívan fogadták, tapasztalataikat sok esetben megosztották velünk, melyeket külön köszönünk és felhasználtunk!

Felhívjuk szíves figyelmüket, hogy továbbra is a megszokottnál korábban érkezzenekrendezvényeinkre, kézitáskánál nagyobb poggyászt lehetőleg ne hozzanak magukkal.

A ruházat-és csomagátvizsgálások nagy látogatószámú eseményeinken még a főbejárat előtti területen kordonokkal és sátrakkal kijelölt bejáratoknál történnek a jövőben is, egyéb esetben közvetlenül a főbejáratnál belépéskor. A gépjárművek és csomagterük ellenőrzése az Aréna területére behajtáskor eseménynapon kötelezően, a parkolóházunkba behajtáskor véletlenszerűen történik.

Rendezvényeink ideje alatt a beléptetést követően biztonsági személyzetünk folyamatosan ellenőrzi a lelátók alatti területeket, folyosókat, mellékhelyiségeket valamint a tetőszerkezetet.

Tudjuk, hogy a beléptetési szigorítások az Önök számára kellemetlenséggel járhat, de az mindannyiunk biztonsága érdekében, prevenciós célból történik.

 

Megértésüket és együttműködésüket köszönjük és kívánunk Önöknek nagyon kellemes szórakozást eseményeinken! Továbbra is szívesen vesszük észrevételeiket!

Tisztelt Vendégeink!

Mint mindannyian értesülhettünk róla, 2015. november 13-án az esti órákban Párizs több helyszínén is szervezett terrortámadás történt jellemzően nagy látogatottságú rendezvényeken.

 

Az áldozatok hozzátartozóinak gyászában osztozunk, a fizikai és lelki sérülteknek mielőbbi gyógyulást kívánunk.

 

Magyarország B szintű terrorfenyegetettség készültségi fokozatot rendelt el az állampolgárok és az országunkban tartózkodó turisták fokozott védelme érdekében. Ennek megfelelően – és annak megfelelve – a Papp László Budapest Sportarénát üzemeltető Budapesti Sportcsarnok Üzemeltető Kft. vezetése is megemelte – visszavonásig – az Aréna biztonsági védelmét.

 

Ebből kedves látogatóink annyit fognak érzékelni, hogy az Arénába történő belépéskor szigorodik az ellenőrzés, csomag-és ruházat átvizsgálás is történhet. Kérjük Önöket, hogy az elkövetkező rendezvényeinkre az eddig megszokottnál korábban érkezzenek, és ne hozzanak magukkal nagyméretű táskákat, csomagokat. Továbbra is tilos behozni az Arénába flakonos italokat, fémtárgyakat, szúró és vágóeszközöket. Az intézkedés lassítani fogja a beléptetést, ezért türelmüket kérjük, de mindannyiunk érdeke a kockázatok lehetőség szerinti csökkentése. Hasonló ellenőrzésre kell felkészülniük az Aréna Parkolóházába történő behajtáskor, ahol csomagtér ellenőrzés is lehet.

Koncertjeinken nem megszokott, de egy ideig rendőrségi jelenlét is várható rendezvényeinken, mely szintén a prevenció – így mindannyiunk - érdekében történik.

 

Megértésüket és együttműködésüket köszönjük és a történtek ellenére kívánunk Önöknek nagyon kellemes szórakozást eseményeinken!

Dear Arena visitors,

As we are sure you will be aware, the terrorist attacks that took place in Paris last November have  unfortunately been subsequently followed by a number of  incidents throughout the world, the most recent occuring in Brussels, where dozens of people died and many more were injured.

We would like to offer our sincerest sympathies to the friends and families of victims involved in all the attacks, and wish those physically injured and mentally affected the fastest possible recovery.

After the attacks in Paris, the authorities in Hungary ordered that the terror threat level in the country be raised to level ‘B’, to ensure the protection of Hungarian citizens and foreign tourists. To comply with this order, the management of Budapest Sportcsarnok Üteneltető Kft, which runs the Papp László Budapest SportsArena, announced on 14, November, 2015 that they would increase the Arena’s security protection levelsuntil further notice.

Based on feedback we’ve received from our visitors, it appears that the Arena’s measures are being deemed appropriate by those visiting. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us, they have helped us to fine-tune our security procedures.

May we kindly remind you of some of the additional security measures in place:

You are asked to continue to arrive earlier than usual for performances, and do not bring any large bags or backpacks.

For larger events, please expect security checks and bag searches on the approaches to the Arena; in the case of smaller events these checks will take place at the entrances to the Arena themselves. All vehicles entering the Arena will be searched, and the Arena also reserves the right to search any vehicle using the Arena’s parking lot.

During performances, our security team will patrol and check areas throughout the Arena.

We do realize that these measures may cause inconvenience, but we are sure that you will understand that they are in place for your own personal safety and protection, and of course your security is our uppermost concern.

Thank you for your cooperation and we look forward to welcoming you to the Arena soon. Please feel free to continue sharing your experiences and feedback with us[o1] .

 [o1]Adrienn, possibly change this as follows: ’...feedback with us, on our Facebook page (mention other places people can put feedback on?)’

Dear Visitors!

 

Most probably all of you are familiar with the fact, that a terror attack took place in Paris on the 13th of November, 2015, during the evening, generally in crowded places.

 

We share the victims’ families’ and friends’ grief and wish the fastest recovery possible for the physically and mentally injured.

 

In favor of the intensified protection of Hungarian citizens and tourists currently staying in the country, Hungary has ordered the ’B’ level terror threat.

According to this – and complying with it – the Budapest Sportcsarnok Üteneltető Kft’s. -operating Papp László Budapest SportsArena- management has raised the Arena’s security protection – until revocation.

 

What You, dear visitors will experience from the raised security protection is a more serious control at the entrance, and a possible bag and clothes scanning.

We would like to kindly ask you to arrive earlier than usually, and not to bring any large bags and packs.

It is still strictly prohibited to bring bottles, any metal objects, sharp, piercing, or cutting tools.

The order will most probably cause delays during the admission, so we kindly ask you to be patient and understand that reducing the risks is in everyone’s best interest. Please be prepared for a similar control when entering the parking lot, where the content your trunk might also be checked.

In favor of prevention and of everyone’s security, – although it was not common in the past - police officers may be present during our events.

 

Let us thank you in advance for your understandig and cooperation. We hope you will have a great time in our venue despite of the recent events in France.
