Finally, Alain Altinoglu can stand before an audience again, and our Music Director grabs this opportunity with both hands. From the Salzburger Festspiele to Vienna, Frankfurt and, of course, Brussels, he has the opportunity to conduct several prestigious orchestras at the beginning of the 2021-22 season.
Ten personalities in support of our opera house.

On February 4th La Monnaie is launching a new series of podcasts called Résonances (in French) / Weerklanken (in Dutch). Fascinating audio stories that introduce and provide a framework for our productions and make interesting listening even without a ticket for a performance.
Shortlisted for the Fedora Prize in the Opera category is our production The Time of our Singing, which will have its world première in September 2021. The recipient of the prestigious award and monetary prize of 75,000 euros that accompanies it is decided by vote. You can support La Monnaie until February 26th. All it takes is a couple of clicks!
Now that it is clear that it will be March before we are allowed to welcome audiences back into the auditorium, La Monnaie has decided to offer the February programme exclusively as streams. So not yet the complete reopening we were hoping for, but at least this way we give the musicians the chance to play together again, the members of the chorus the opportunity to sing together and the public the pleasure of discovering new productions.
Podium 19, a new virtual stage on which a number of Flemish and Brussels art institutions will broadcast their performances, was launched on January 21st. La Monnaie supports this new cultural channel, that you can watch either online or via cable, with its opera Die tote Stadt featuring in the programme.
La Monnaie wishes you happy holidays and a joyful and healthy 2021
Though our doors remain closed, silver linings can still be found even in these clouded times. It is with great joy that we can announce that our production of Macbeth Underworld won ‘Best World Premiere’ at this year’s Oper! Awards.
