The French Ministry of Culture grants our Music Director this prestigious title for his outstanding artistic merits.
“This distinction means a lot to me. It honours all that I, the son of immigrants, have learned in and from France.” With these words of thanks, our Music Director Alain Altinoglu accepted his recent promotion to the rank of Officier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres. The French conductor, ‘Chevalier’ of the same order since 2014, received the title for his extraordinary merits in the field of music. He has led the La Monnaie Orchestra since 2016 and the hr-Sinfonieorchester Frankfurt since 2021. This year, he also acquired the artistic direction of the Festival International de Colmar.
Mezzo-soprano and MM Ambassador Nora Gubisch received the same award for her exceptional singing career.
This autumn, La Monnaie and the Foundation against Cancer are joining forces for two benefit concerts. By purchasing a ticket for Memories (Christoph Prégardien) or Invitation au voyage (Véronique Gens) in our Main Hall, you directly support the fight against a disease that continues to impact too many lives.
An opera that reflects on the past, present, and future — an opera about now. La Monnaie’s world premiere of Bernard Foccroulle’s Cassandra, conducted by Kazushi Ono, is now available via Outhere Music.
From 3 June to 22 September, La Monnaie and Muntpunt are transforming Rue Royale—the small street between their buildings—into a vibrant summer spot. A long table will serve as a welcoming meeting place where locals and passers-by can read, have lunch, play board games, or simply soak up the sun.
