In the 2022-23 season, 11 new European opera productions will be released for free online on Arte Opera. This year’s selection includes our Donizetti dyptich Bastarda, on the life of Elizabeth I, which will be staged at La Monnaie in the spring of 2023.
Every year the pan-European cultural channel Arte Opera releases several new opera productions online for free. Bastarda, La Monnaie's ambitious historical fresco about the life of Queen Elizabeth I, based on Donizetti's ‘Tudor-tetralogy’ Elisabetta al castello di Kenilworth (1829), Anna Bolena (1830), Maria Stuarda (1834), and Roberto Devereux (1837), will be broadcast in the spring of 2024. Besides this premiere, a wide range of other new productions by directors from La Monnaie's artistic family made the cut: Dmitri Tcherniakov's Der Ring des Nibelungen (Wagner) at the Staatsoper Berlin, Krzysztof Warlikowski's Hamlet (Thomas) at the Paris Opéra and Time of Our Singing-director Ted Huffman's Romeo et Juliette (Gounod) at Oper Zürich.
A real feast for the eyes and ears in 2023, La Monnaie’s production of Tchaikovsky’s most intimate and celebrated opera, directed by Laurent Pelly and conducted by Alain Altinoglu, is now available on DVD, Blu-ray and streaming via Naxos.
From March 28 to 30, the tenth edition of the Passa Porta Festival will take place, dedicated entirely to the theme of ‘Ghosts’. This year, numerous events will also be held at La Monnaie, ranging from encounters with leading authors to literary tours.
