As the programme for the next 2022 Festival International d’Art Lyrique d’Aix-en-Provence is unveiled, the music lovers’ party seems to be confirmed on all floors and in all halls with Mozart’s Idomeneo and Rossini’s Moïse et Pharaon at the l’Archevêché theater, Monteverdi’s L’Incoronazione di Poppea at the Théâtre du Jeu de Paume, Strauss’s Salome, concert versions of Monteverdi’s Orfeo and Gluck’s Orpheus and Eurydice revisited by Berlioz, and a stage creation by Pascal Dusapin at the Grand Théâtre de Provence. In this theatre, an event that attracts a little more attention is Bellini’s Norma, performed by the great voice of the immense artist Karine Deshayes and at her side, tenor Michael Spyres!
