Puccini - Manon Lescaut
Manon Lescaut received thirty standing ovations when Giacomo Puccini’s work was first performed in Turin, in 1893. The Monnaie is banking on the exceptional partnership between the conductor Carlo Rizzi and a new arrival, the Polish director, Mariusz Trelinski, for this long-awaited return to the Brussels stage because the opera was last performed there 37 years ago. The opera returns to La Monnaie with an all-star cast: Eva-Maria Westbroek, in the role of Manon, Brandon Jovanovich in the role of Knight Des Grieux, and Aris Argiris as Lescaut.The Symphony Orchestra and Chorus of La Monnaie perform a unique staging of Manon Lescaut.
