Charles Gounod

Gounod's "Faust" is the second most performed French opera in the world, just behind "Carmen." But should one take this "Faust" literally? Or see, in the midst of the fable, a celebration of pleasures? From the demonic round dance of the Golden Calf led by Satan himself to Marguerite laughing at her own beauty in the mirror, the spectator can savor all excesses, intoxicate themselves with music... without risking damnation. This contradiction does not escape the enlightened analysis of Denis Podalydès. He sees here "an opera fundamentally anti-Puritan in a Puritan world whose religious code it nevertheless embraces, and pretends to observe. There is in this work a double or duplicitous aspect – a structural hypocrisy, typical of the Second Empire. For Gounod is a true Catholic plagued by demons all the more diabolical because he is a fervent Christian." After examining another great figure of theater, Falstaff, in his Verdian dimension, the director tackles here the tragic hero of Goethe, using the spoken dialogues of Jules Barbier that were part of the work at its creation in 1859, to reveal all its ambiguities. A way of celebrating, through Gounod's opera, eternal youth.

Fire temperaments, enchanting lullabies, thwarted and fierce loves... Spanish songs and melodies love drama but also the subtlety of sentiment... On the program of this recital, the cream of Spanish composers: Granados, of course, the Catalan Fernando Obradors, adapting García Lorca, Xavier Montsalvatge, a friend of Olivier Messiaen. But also the esteemed French composer of Lakmé, Léo Delibes, and inspirations from across the Atlantic: Carlos Guastavino, flame of Argentine romanticism, or the Mexican Agustín Lara nicknamed the "musician poet," whose irresistible melodies were immortalized by both Caruso and Frank Sinatra... So many gems that will be sublimated by the mezzo-soprano Gaëlle Arquez. In her impressive international career, she has portrayed a staggering array of roles: Charlotte at the Vienna Staatsoper, Dorabella at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, Isabella in Milan, Cenerentola at the Liceu in Barcelona... Quite impressive! But above all, she was a remarkable Carmen, at the Opéra Comique but also outdoors, under the Eiffel Tower, in front of an ecstatic audience...

Fernando Obradors, Agustín Lara, Carlos Guastavino, Enrique Granados,

Roméo + Juliette
Marcos Morau
Performance of your choice

The inexhaustible inspiration of Romeo and Juliet: no fewer than twenty-five operas, a dramatic symphony by Berlioz, a plethora of films, and musical comedies... In 1934, in search of a lyrical theme for the Kirov Theatre, Prokofiev chose the subject over Tristan and Isolde or Pelléas et Mélisande... And he was right to do so: thanks to him, the young lovers of Verona shine brilliantly in the legend of 20th-century ballet. This classic tale lends itself this time to the abundant universe of the Spanish choreographer Marcos Morau, a proponent of a "grandiose visual dance theatre."
In 2022, at the Opéra de Lille, he awakened Sleeping Beauty with an androgynous, dreamy, audacious vision. This time, the leader of the Catalan company La Veronal ventures to Verona, dividing the dancers of the Ballet des Flandres into Montagues and Capulets, for a contemporary and deeply personal reinterpretation of the myth. "I love confronting these tales from another time and asking myself what we can do with them today... What interests me above all is to use my creativity, my madness, my nightmares, or my fears to evolve the story."
