The traditional Viennese melange (Wiener Melange) is served in a large glass with equal parts espresso coffee and steamed, frothed milk. The choice of title for the evening promises a splendid blend of Johann Strauss’s oeuvre, celebrated worldwide on the 200th anniversary of the composer’s birth. The programme curated by Guido Mancusi offers a comprehensive cross-section from the world of balls, reflecting the glamorous, emotionally charged and intrigue-filled environment of Vienna’s salons.

Palace of Arts Müpa Budapest
When Müpa Budapest, Hungary and its capital's new cultural hub, opened in 2005, it was built to represent more than 100 years of Hungarian cultural history. As a conglomeration of cultural venues, the building has no precedent in 20th century Hungarian architecture and has no peers in the whole of Central Europe.
The creators of this ambitious project, the Trigránit Development Corporation, prime contractor Arcadom Construction and the Zoboki, Demeter and Partners Architectural Office, were driven by the desire to create a new European cultural citadel as part of the new Millennium City Centre complex along the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Danube waterfront. The result is a facility whose construction quality, appearance, functionality and 21st century technological infrastructure makes it ideally suited to productions of the highest standard. The building is also highly versatile and equipped to host performances of any genre and almost any scale.
