After a four-year break, the Förderkreis der Deutschen Oper Berlin celebrates a glittering party and raises more than €34,000 for the promotion of young talent.

"Un bel di vedremo" - this was the invitation to the stage party 23 in reference to Madama Butterfly's longing wait. And they met again - more than 110 guests, singers and members of the Friends were finally able to celebrate again on the stage of the Deutsche Oper after a four-year break following the performance of MADAMA BUTTERFLY and look optimistically to the future. From the point of view of the Förderkreis, the future is above all the promotion of young talent. And that is why all the efforts of the evening were directed towards supporting the Talent Circle initiated by the Förderkreis - which, in addition to the singers' and singers' scholarships, also supports the academists of the Orchestra Academy and this year was able to offer a répétiteur position for the second time. In a brilliant auction - in which bouquets of flowers, dances and rare opera experiences were auctioned off by the Chairman of the Circle of Sponsors, Dr. Kilian Jay von Seldeneck - more than 34,000 € were thus raised, plus the other donations made, which will be used for the Talent Circle. The party and dancing went on until well after midnight - so it was worth the wait!
