MM Tickets will be closed from Saturday 4 July to 17 August. Throughout this period, tickets and subscriptions can still be purchased online. The teams at La Monnaie wish you a delightful summertime.
February, the month of Valentine's Day. The perfect excuse to compile our monthly Kiosk Radio playlist with music full of love, longing and heartbreak.
With this fourth playlist, La Monnaie continues its collaboration with the online community radio station Kiosk Radio. This time we combined instrumental music, opera excerpts, but also choral and film music to address the most intense of all human emotions from all angles. Surrender to two hours of music full of seduction, beauty, passion and danger.
