The editor of the new series introduced under the title "Opera Hits" has come up with a new idea: from operas an orchestra - in this case, a junior or non-professional string orchestra - should have a chance to play not only the overture or the orchestral interludes, but also the vocal numbers (arias, duets, etc.). The popular, well-known opera excerpts transcribed by András Soós should serve as attractive additions to the repertoire and be successful programme items for such ensembles.
