Introduction

The Monte-Carlo Opera has prepared a lavish programme for the 2024/25 season, with 14 productions, including five staged operas and three operas in concert, showcasing world-renowned artists while strengthening links with the Principality's leading cultural institutions. The season opens at the end of October with a magnificent festival commemorating the centenary of Giacomo Puccini's death, featuring four unmissable major events.
Mozart lovers will be delighted by a new production of La Clemenza di Tito and the return of the Vienna Staatsoper for a concert version of Don Giovanni in January. February will mark a new Wagnerian journey with a production of Das Rheingold, performed for the very first time on period instruments in a stage version, highlighting the strong links between the Monte-Carlo Opera and Bayreuth. Finally, on 21 March 2025, the Monegasque stage will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the premiere of Maurice Ravel's L'Enfant et les Sortilèges at the Monte-Carlo Opera, a celebration of its rich cultural heritage and its close ties with iconic figures such as Ravel and Colette.

L'elisir d'amore by Gaetano Donizetti

Dec
20 24
The majority of Gaetano Donizetti’s operas, numbering around 70, was based on blood-soaked tragedies and fell into oblivion eventually. The few memorable pieces that made their way into our century, however, include marvellous comedies such as L’elisir d’amore. Musically original and coherent throughout, its inspired libretto contains a refined humour bordering on farce, whereas Donizetti’s music shines with a great number of unforgettable tunes that please the greatest of stars.
