About the event

On Friday 13 June 2025, a concert featuring scholarship recipients and members of the Opera Studio was held in the foyer of the Croatian National Theatre (HNK). The performance marked the culmination of several months of dedicated work, which this year also included a masterclass led by internationally acclaimed baritone Željko Lučić. He, along with participants, emphasized the importance of the support HNK Opera provides to young artists.

The program featured a selection of operatic highlights, including Rossini's The Barber of Seville (“Una voce poco fa”), Donizetti’s The Elixir of Love, Dvořák’s Rusalka (“Song to the Moon”), Offenbach’s The Tales of Hoffmann, and Mozart’s The Magic Flute.

Performers included sopranos Petra Cik, Nikolina Hrkać, and Hana Ilčić; tenors Lovre Gujinović and Josip Švagelj; baritone Marin Čargo; and pianist Darijan Ivezić.

The evening was a celebration of talent, dedication, and the future of opera.
