On August 12, 2017, King Philippe, Queen Mathilde, Crown Princess Elisabeth, Princess Eleonore, Prince Gabriel and Prince Emmanuel attended the 'Aida' premiere during the Salzburg Opera Festival 2017 (Salzburger Opernfestspiele) in Salzburg, Austria. |
This is Trapp family with first glance. LOL.
ReplyDeleteI love to sing Verdi, Aida´s aria Ritorna Vincitor is one of my favorites. Quite a killer aria really. Wish I were there listening that opera myself.
I don't get the reason why the boys and Eleonore are "costumed". They're spectators, not participants. I love Aida's Triumphal March.
ReplyDeleteMoi, je les trouve tous très élégants. J'aime beaucoup !!!
DeleteWould be quite something to watch "Aida" with singers performing in Lederhosen and Dirndl. I think, they (Belgian Royal Family, that is) went shopping for traditional clothing before, something so many do when being in Salzburg or Austria or Bavaria, and then wanted to put it one when going to the Opera House. Surely as simple as that. Get the "Sound of Music" feeling...
DeleteSounds logical - the clothes, I mean. I can't quite see Aida being performed in lederhosen and dirndl tho. .
DeleteLovely family. The Queen's dress, obviously a Natan, is a gorgeous floral print. The length is much better than her usual but the waist is still high and the short sleeves are tight and unflattering to my eye. This must be a comfortable fit for Mathilde since most of her dresses are like this. Could Natan be repeatedly using the same bodice pattern?
ReplyDeleteSure Hero!I hope this could change some day.
DeleteHas the King burnt his face with Sun?
waarom gaan jullie nietr gewoon op vakantie met je kids en maak er geen werkvakantie vaN? Schouwburg, museum??
ReplyDeleteI love Mathilde's and Elisabeth's dresses. The other kids look like they are performing in Sound of Music. Odd.
ReplyDeleteJust like in Norway, the Austrian dirndl for girls/women and the gray boiled wool jackets for men/boys are considered very dressy outfits, not costumes. They are quite an investment. So they are well-dressed and in Austria. Very fitting!
ReplyDeleteDans beaucoup de régions autrefois autrichiennes,comme les Dolomites,les gens portent les costumes traditionnels .Sur des femmes c'est beaucoup plus gracieux que sur des fillettes avec corselets et jolis décoltés.
ReplyDeleteBut they're Belgian, not Österreicher. You don't wear limono, sari, guayabera or Charro suit when you attend an Opera performance in Japan, India, Cuba or México if you're not Japanese, Indian, Cubsn or Mexican.
