On February 4th La Monnaie is launching a new series of podcasts called Résonances (in French) / Weerklanken (in Dutch). Fascinating audio stories that introduce and provide a framework for our productions and make interesting listening even without a ticket for a performance.
In this new podcast series, La Monnaie goes in search of the stories of its operas in the world around us. Each episode consists of an in-depth interview recorded in a noteworthy location in Brussels. And of course – how could it be otherwise? – time is also allowed for music.
The first episode explores Mozart’s Der Schauspieldirektor. A double conversation with two theatre directors from an empty KVS about the malaise of Corona, the need for an audience and what a good ‘Schauspieldirektor’ should do.
The first episode of Résonances / Weerklanken is now available on MMM Online and of course also on your favourite podcast app. Subscribe to our channel now and you won’t miss a single episode:
As part of the worldwide Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the façade of La Monnaie will lit up in pink from 17 to 19 October. Through this symbolic gesture, our house aims to highlight what is still insufficiently known about the disease.
On 21 November, the International Opera Awards will recognise the artists, productions and most innovative projects that marked the international opera scene in 2026. La Monnaie has received two nominations: the first for the opera Medusa and the second for the Green Opera project.
The former General and Artistic Director of La Monnaie will succeed Markus Hinterhäuser and take up his new position in Salzburg on 1 October, following the 2027 Festival edition.
