The Leipzig Opera represents more than 300 years of urban opera tradition and is the venue for well-known soloists, choirs and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra.
The Leipzig Opera - consisting of opera, musical comedy and the Leipzig Ballet - is the third oldest civic music theater stage in Europe. Its outstanding international reputation is shaped by the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, important soloists, an award-winning choir and the Leipzig Ballet.
The opera was founded in 1693, making it the second oldest German music stage after Hamburg. The Leipzig Music Trail leads directly past the opera house and the Leipzig Jazz Days are also held here every year. The musicals and operettas included in the program are performed in the historic Haus Dreilinden (Musical Comedy).
