For many years Poland has hosted a real sensation! The Warsaw Chamber Opera! The only company in the world, to have for 15 years all of Mozart's operas permanently in their repertoire. In the very intimate theatre, in the beautiful palace located in Warsaw, a unique tribute to Mozart takes place. Praised by the opera press Ryszard Peryt (stage director) shows all his performances in an appropriate, modern and, at the same time, classical setting.
