LAUREATE OF THE GOLDEN MASK
in the category
“The best work of a conductor”

2021–2023
He started the New Year 2023 with a festive concert at the Liszt Academy together with the Hungarian Radio Orchestra, live broadcast on Hungarian state television and radio. He successfully prepared Mussorgsky’s production of Boris Godunov at the Opera House in Innsbruck and performed Dvořák’s Requiem in Lodž, Poland. In addition, he oversaw the creation of a new production of Ján Cikker’s opera “Resurrection” at the Slovak National Theatre in Bratislava.

In Budapest, in addition to the opera, he conducted a concert with the Hungarian National Philharmonic on the occasion of Hungarian Classical Music Day and a subscription concert with works by Bartók, Erkel, Dohnányi and Stravinsky. In the summer, he worked in Australia, where he conducted Verdi’s “Traviata” with the State Opera South Australia.

At the beginning of 2021, he conducted two operas at the Hungarian State Opera – “Luthier de Cremona” by Jenö Hubay and “Aunt Simona” by Ernest von Dohnányi. They recorded both operas on DVD and CD.

Since 2020, he has been working with the Bulgarian National Opera in Sofia, where he conducts productions of “Tosca”, “Turandot”, “Don Carlos” and Verdi’s “Macbeth”, starring Alexandrina Pendachanska and Kiril Manolov.
In October 2020, he conducted Mahler’s 8th Symphony (“Symphony of a Thousand”) as the opening concert of the new “Eiffel Art Studios” at the Hungarian State Opera.

Orchestras and concerts:

Currently, he often collaborates with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra in Prague and is a permanent guest conductor of the Slovak Sinfonietta Chamber Orchestra.

He has also conducted the following orchestras: London Philharmonic Orchestra, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, English Chamber Orchestra, London Mozart Players, BBC Manchester and BBC Belfast, St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra, Yomiuri Nippon Symphony Orchestra, Dallas Symphony Orchestra, Chicago Sinfonietta, Philharmonie Buenos Aires, Tonkünstler Orchestra Wien, Hungarian State Philharmonic, Zagreb Philharmonic and Zagreb Radio Symphony Orchestra, Czech Philharmonic, Slovak Philharmonic, New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, Wellington SO and many symphony orchestras in France, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and Hungary, New Zealand, Japan and Great Britain.

Ural Opera House, Yekaterinburg, Russia (2015-2020)
In the 2015/16 season, he was appointed chief conductor of the Ural Opera in Yekaterinburg, Russia. In 2015, his first production of Philip Glass’s opera “Satyagraha” won two Golden Masks – Russia’s highest theatre award. They presented the production at the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow as part of Russia’s largest theatre festival and immediately attracted the attention of Russian and international critics and experts. In addition to this opera, which is still in the repertoire, he also conducted the operas: “The Magic Flute”, “The Flying Dutchman”, “Eugene Onegin”, “La Bohème”, “Otello”, “Carmen” and “Rigoletto”.
In April 2018, he received the highest Russian national theatre award – “Golden Mask” in the category “Best work of a conductor in an opera”, among about 85 conductors working in Russia, for Weinberg’s opera “Passenger”, which he conducted (at the Russian premiere) at the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow. In March 2020, his last production for Yekaterinburg, Petr Eötvös’s opera “Three Sisters,” achieved great success in Moscow at the Golden Mask Festival and earned the title “Best Opera Production of the Year.” His work in Russia was violently interrupted by the wave of COVID-19 and subsequently by the war in Ukraine.

Les Huguenots – State Opera, Budapest

Giacomo Meyerbeer

Les Huguenots

Opera in three parts, five acts, in French, with Hungarian and English surtitles

In 2017, the Opera celebrated the 500th anniversary of the start of the Reformation by staging Les Huguenots, the wonderful grand opéra by Giacomo Meyerbeer.
The story is based on one of the most horrible events in the French Wars of Religion: the Saint Bartholomew’s Day massacre, when thousands of French Calvinist Protestants (Huguenots) gathered in Paris were butchered with the assent of the king.
The piece is one of the most brilliant examples of French grande opera, conquering the entire globe soon after its world premiere in Paris. It has remained one of the most popular and frequently played operatic works ever since.

Press Reviews of Falstaff in London

ENO’s new FALSTAFF … marks a further upward swing in the company’s emergence from its recent aesthetic doldrums. It’s not, it should be said, perfect… That succeeds is largely due to the conductor, Oliver von Dohnanyi, who, in a stunning debut, sweeps you away with his galvanic energy from beginning to end, keeps the score’s wonderful, if tricky, balance between exuberance and unbearable poignancy in perfect check, and obtains playing of heart-stopping brilliance from the ENO orchestra .
