Le Nozze on tour !

From Sunday november 8th, a new production of Le Nozze di Figaro will start in the very cosy  Théâtre Impérial de Compiègne (a co-production of national scene of Besançon, Dunkerque and Quimper). It will be on tour in many french cities until january 23^rd 2016.  Click here to discover all the dates. 

Three of our artists will participate to the tour : Emmanuelle de Negri is Susanna,  the baritone Thomas Dolié, the Comte and the  bass Frédéric Caton, both Bartolo and Antonio.

This opera (Première in 1786 in Vienna) is the first of three collaborations between Mozart and Lorenzo Da Ponte. This one wrote the booklet from the brillant and hilarious Beaumarchais's Le Mariage de Figaro.

This piece is guided by the desire. Every characters are driven by the desire to the point of madness. It is this sense of life Mozart thrilled with this music, both modest and burning, melancholic and légère. Feelings are changed to the point that you end up doubting everything, even the laws of nature.

Alexis Kossenko will conduct the ensemble Les Ambassadeurs he founded. It is playing on ancient instruments.
