The International Opera Foundation Eszterháza

Newsletter Vol. I August 06

Dear Opera Friend,

In launching the first issue of our Newsletter, we have a threefold goal in mind: we wish to inform you about the newest developments in the process leading to the reconstruction of Haydn's destroyed opera house at Eszterháza and the creation of a unique European Academy of Early Opera Performance there; we would like to shed light on the incredibly wide cultural implications of this ambitious venture; and we wish to find new friends, supporters, sponsors and donors for continuing our work.
