HIGHLIGHTS: SABINE DEVIEILHE RECITAL

Live performances sometimes offer us little moments of eternity with the greatest of pleasures. Such is the case with L'Amour du chant, Opus 2, that will be staged at the Opéra Comique.
Under this name, we invite you to discover the recital and life-changing performance of the great French soprano, Sabine Devieilhe.

Acclaimed for her crystalline, agile and adept voice, as well as for her stage presence, she made her public debut in 2012 in the role of Salpeta in Mozart's La Finta giardiniera at the Festival d'Aix-en-Provence Academy.

Her dazzling career has taken her to some of the world's greatest opera houses, including the Opéra national de Paris, the Royal Opera House in London, the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and the Teatro alla Scala in Milan. She collaborates with many renowned conductors and performs at prestigious festivals.

Her repertoire ranges from baroque to contemporary music, including Bel Canto, and the great roles of the French repertoire. Accompanied by the pianist Mathieu Pordoy, Sabine Devieilhe will make you spend a moment, or eternity, in pure happiness.

History and Fun Facts about the Opéra Comique

If you take a walk in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris, you will be delighted to discover in the small, quaint Place Boieldieu, a superb building of beautiful proportions topped by six caryatids: the Opéra Comique, a theatre house in Paris, which celebrated its 300th anniversary in 2015. You will be surprised to learn that this gold and red auditorium, also known as Salle Favart, is considered the first modern theatre in France because it was the first to be designed with fully electric equipment for both public and stage lighting.

That doesn’t rest as the only surprise… Despite its name, the Opéra Comique doesn’t only perform comic operas, a particular kind of musical show that mixes sung arias with spoken theatre (the ancestor of the musical), but a wide range of operas as well! It was in this venue that works that are now internationally known were created, such as Berlioz's La Damnation de Faust, Delibes's Lakmé, Offenbach's Les Contes d'Hoffmann, Debussy's Pelléas et Mélisande... but also Massenet's Manon and Bizet's Carmen! This hall has welcomed the finest composers and never ceased to welcome works from the contemporary repertoire. Viva la musica! Viva l'opera!
