LA MONNAIE / DE MUNT

On 6 January, Alain Altinoglu and the La Monnaie Symphony Orchestra will perform the Second and Fourth Symphonies of Ludwig van Beethoven during the second concert of our Beethoven cycle. La Monnaie invited the Spanish composer Mauricio Sotelo to compose an original piece inspired by Beethoven’s Fourth Symphony. His clarinet concerto L’angelo necessario will be performed for the first time with Antonio Capolupo as soloist.

On September 2^nd 2018, for the first time La Monnaie Symphony Orchestra conducted by Alain Altinoglu will accompany the French piano duo Katia and Marielle Labèque at the Centre for Fine Arts Brussels. A golden opportunity to take a look at the world of these two unclassifiable artists.

During the ‘Beethoven Overture’ concert, Alain Altinoglu will conduct one of the most iconic suites in Russian music. Pictures at an ‘Exhibition’ by Modest Mussorgsky is a musical stroll that harnesses the imaginative powers of La Monnaie Symphony Orchestra and showcases its feel for colour and texture.   

During the Háry János concert, La Monnaie Children’s and Youth Choir will perform Bartók’s Seven Choruses for Children. A conversation with Benoît Giaux, chorus master of the Youth Choir and artistic director of our MM Academy.
