LES HUGUENOTS by GIACOMO MEYERBEER comes to La Monnaie in June.

His composition of the opera Les Huguenots, which features religious intolerance as one of its main themes, confirmed Meyerbeer's position as one of the most popular composers of the nineteenth century.

Though Les Huguenots had not been performed at la Monnaie since 1870, Olivier Py's staging in 2011 was a great success with both public and critics (awarded Best Production of the Year by the Opernwelt Jahrbuch 2011). Eleven years later this production returns to the stage where it was born, this time under the musical direction of Evelino Pidò, and performed by a number of singers making their debut in their role (Karine Deshayes, Lenneke Ruiten, Enea Scala...).

Opening night 12th of June - 15:00
