THE BEST CHAMBER MUSIC HAS TO OFFER, EVERY FRIDAY AFTERNOON AT LA MONNAIE

La Monnaie’s new chamber music season gives the musicians of our Symphony Orchestra the opportunity to enrich their repertoire. In a hushed setting and with intimate instrumental ensembles, they will perform familiar works of music, but also have some wonderful surprises in store for you.

In line with our Ring cycle, we will continue the collaboration we began last season with musicologist Stijn Paredis from KU Leuven. Four concertini this season will be devoted to the fin-de-siècle aesthetics and the artistic circles of Les XX and La Libre Esthétique, which gravitated around La Monnaie at the time. Claude Debussy, Vincent d’Indy, Emmanuel Chabrier, François Rasse and Joaquín Turina will all be featured.

The voice will also be very much in evidence. We are delighted to welcome the artists from the La Monnaie Choruses (conducted by Emmanuel Trenque) for two original programmes, one with the women’s chorus and the other with a mixed ensemble. The young singers of the MM Academy will surprise us on several occasions, among others during the traditional Wild Cards and the concert presenting the new Soloists and Laureates. Baritone Werner Van Mechelen and pianist Florestan Bataillie will give a recital in which lieder of Hugo Wolf, Franz Schubert and Gustav Mahler resonate with songs of Ralph Vaughan Williams. After many years as répétiteur, pianist Inge Spinette will be bidding farewell to La Monnaie. On this occasion, she will be reunited with her faithful singing friends for what promises to be a particularly festive concert.

We will also put the spotlight on the centennial of Gabriel Fauré’s passing and celebrate the 125th birthday of Francis Poulenc, by dedicating some of our concerts to their works. Following on from the operatic performances of our diptych on Claudio Monteverdi, it is with great pleasure that we welcome the musicians of the Cappella Mediterranea ensemble to delve deeper into the baroque chamber music repertoire. Lastly, contemporary music will not be forgotten. We reunite with composers Kris Defoort and Harold Noben – all on the bill of the opera season – in programmes dedicated to our different ensembles.
