Clément Cogitore adapte une courte partie de ballet des « Indes galantes » de Jean-Philippe Rameau, avec le concours d’un groupe de danseurs de Krump, et de trois chorégraphes, sur la 3ème Scène de l’Opéra National de Paris : Bintou Dembele, Igor Caruge et Brahim Rachiki. Le Krump est une danse née dans les ghettos de Los Angeles dans les années 90. Sa naissance résulte des émeutes et de la répression policière brutale qui ont suivi le passage à tabac de Rodney King.

Tim Walker, 17 ans, quitte Londres pour se rendre dans les Alpes autrichiennes. Grâce à une bourse de chant, il a là-bas l'occasion unique de fréquenter le légendaire pensionnat Mozart. Mais ses études ne se déroulent pas du tout comme il l'avait prévu : il découvre un mystérieux portail qui existe depuis des siècles. Lorsqu'il franchit ce passage oublié, il atterrit dans le monde fantastique de la "Flûte enchantée" de Mozart.

Opéra "Lakmé" de Léo Delibes à l'Opéra Comique à Paris en 2022, sous la direction de Raphaël Pichon et avec l'ensemble Pygmalion; Mise e scène de laurent Pelly.

Prince Tamino promises the Queen of the Night that he will rescue her daughter Pamina from the enchanter Sarastro. He begins his quest, accompanied by the bird-catcher Papageno – but all is not as it seems… Tamino and Papageno discover Sarastro is a wise and kind leader. They undergo three ordeals. By the end they are united with their true loves: Tamino with Pamina, and Papageno with his Papagena.

Composed in 1707 in Rome, Handel's Il Trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno is an oratorio in two parts with a libretto written by Cardinal Benedetto Pamphili. Staged by Krzysztof Warlikowski and conducted by Emmanuelle Haïm, this sublime performance was presented at the Aix-en-Provence Festival in 2016.

Le prince Tamino est chargé par la Reine de la nuit de libérer sa fille, Pamina, que le grand prêtre Sarastro retient captive. Accompagné par Papageno, un oiseleur farceur, Tamino entreprend un long périple semé d’épreuves pour délivrer la belle et conquérir son cœur. Au fil de sa quête, il découvre que la Reine de la nuit cherche en réalité à se venger de Sarastro… Dans cette production-événement, coup d'envoi de la saison 2018-2019 du Théâtre royal de la Monnaie, le plasticien et metteur en scène italien Romeo Castellucci s'empare du chef-d'œuvre lyrique de Mozart. Dans une mise en scène à l'esthétisme épuré, où le noir et le blanc se télescopent, où d'énigmatiques décontamineurs côtoient de délicats marquis et marquises, il en livre une version d'une surprenante audace. Une Flûte enchantée toute personnelle et férocement contemporaine.

The myth of Orpheus and Eurydice tells of the impossible return to the land of the living by a woman who has been mortally wounded. The poet-musician Orpheus’s eventful journey in the world of shadows, searching for the one he loves and cannot let go, takes him to the Elysian Fields. This is an unexpected place of peaceful, composed of countryside and those in its thrall. It is here that Eurydice is now installed. During his journey Orpheus is thus introduced to a surprising reality: an enclave, a protected place, both near and yet inaccessible, disturbing, between life and death.

“To be, or not to be..." You probably know the question, but perhaps not Cyril Teste's answer! A stage director famed for his fascinating fusion of theater and film, he stages the opera Hamlet for the first time in this production starring a brilliant group of soloists led by Stéphane Degout, Sabine Devieilhe, Laurent Alvaro, and Sylvie Brunet-Grupposo.

The story concerns a pair of lovers, Acante and Céphise, who suffer at the hands of a wicked genie Oroès. They are saved by the good fairy Zirphile, who uses her magic powers, including the gift of telepathy (the sympathie of the title), to defeat Oroès.

Un opéra de Mozart à la Scala de Milan

A staging of Richard Strauss' opera "Ariadne auf Naxos" by Katie Mitchell. Recorded at the Festival d'Aix-en-Provence.

This Salzburg Festival production of Le nozze di Figaro (2020) offers a radical reinterpretation of Mozart's opera, directed by Martin Kušej, who continues his exploration of Mozart’s works following Don Giovanni (2002) and La clemenza di Tito (2003). The turbulent comedy, laden with erotic entanglements, exposes themes of patriarchal dependency, sexual exploitation, betrayal, and emotional emptiness. French conductor Raphaël Pichon, renowned for historically informed performances, conducts his first opera at Salzburg after his debut at the festival in 2018.

For his first appearance in the pit in Paris with his Artaserse ensemble, Philippe Jaroussky has chosen a masterpiece that he knows well, having sung the role of Sesto on numerous occasions, notably in the highly acclaimed Salzburg production alongside Cecilia Bartoli. As for the staging, we will welcome for the first time on Avenue Montaigne a Venetian who is used to the greatest European stages and who has undertaken his first Handel, Alcina, in the summer of 2019 in Salzburg with Ruggiero... Philippe Jaroussky. Everyone agrees on his ability to imagine delicate and highly effective dramaturgical worlds (his Barber of Seville for the Paris Opera is an irresistible visual translation of Rossini's frenzied score). His debut in opera seria with Alcina also showed his intelligence in giving coherence and emotion to the demanding arias da capo. On stage, a team familiar with the Théàtre des Champs-Elysées and this repertoire, led by a very fine trio of French women.

During a poetic stroll through the most symbolic moments in the life of Maurice Ravel (1875-1937), the composer of ‘Boléro’ is slowly revealed through his music. Conducted by Klaus Mäkelä and performed by an all-star French cast.
