Performer: Orchestre de l'Opéra de Lyon

The Opéra de Lyon presents Britten’s masterpiece for the first time: a triumph, both visually and musically, which is received with great enthusiasm by the audience.

A highly successful Falstaff at the Archevêché in Aix-en-Provence, for our greater pleasure: a true lesson in joy in a world where, we are told, all is but a joke.

Its premiere postponed from Festival d'Aix last summer, Barrie Kosky's staging of Rimsky-Korsakov's political satire finally takes place in Lyon. 

A controversial new production of Bluebeard's Castle by Andriy Zholdak in which Bartók's opera is played out twice... 

A dashing, captivating concert, lacking only a few mood-changers to stimulate the audience’s eager receptors.

Herheim pulls us in unexpected directions, makes us laugh and makes us think as we enjoy fine Rossinian music and singing in Opéra de Lyon's production.
