About this event
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 reveals the secrets of the scores presented at La Monnaie, through an accessible analysis with live musical excerpts. For the opening production of the 2026-27 season, Charles Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette, conductor Valentina Peleggi and director Julia Burbach will join General and Artistic Director Christina Scheppelmann to explore the artistic choices, musical highlights and dramatic power that bring this beloved opera to life.
