On Thursday February 26th, Belgian singer Angèle released the official video for her new single What You Want with a projection on the façade of La Monnaie.
Following the success of Brol and Nonante-Cinq, and a major international tour, Brussels born singer Angèle chose the beating heart of the capital for the world premiere of her new single What You Want.
Shown on the façade of La Monnaie in front of 10,000 fans, this track blends Angèle's pop universe with the electro of French DJ duo Justice. The song evokes desire, love, erotic games, intimacy and universality. The video broadcast at La Monnaie and its choreography were created by the contemporary dance collective (LA)HORDE, whose production A Room With A View was co-produced by La Monnaie, Théâtre National Wallonie Bxl and Charleroi Danse as part of Troika Dance in 2023.
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.
This year, Mobility Week coincides with the celebrations marking the 50th anniversary of the Brussels metro network. La Monnaie, which promotes sustainable mobility, has joined in the STIB’s celebrations by organising a pop-up fashion show at De Brouckère station on 15 September.
