Inside the Music
La Cenerentola

What stories lie behind the creation of an opera? How can you ensure that an aria strikes a chord with the audience? How does the orchestra support or drive the emotions on stage? Our ‘Inside the Music’ talks reveal the secrets of the scores presented at La Monnaie, through an accessible analysis with live musical excerpts.

For Gioachino Rossini’s La Cenerentola, conductor Speranza Scappucci and dramaturge Sébastien Herbecq will explore the beauty of the melodies, the expressive richness of the vocal lines and the virtuosity of the ensembles in what is considered to be one of the most beloved operas in the whole bel canto repertoire.
