The Chorégies d’Orange have unveiled their 2025 program, packed with prestigious events. Highlights include unmissable concerts (Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique conducted by Michele Spotti, Mozart’s Requiem under the baton of Diego Ceretta featuring Jessica Pratt, a recital by Renaud Capuçon, and Paul McCartney’s Liverpool Oratorio), Swan Lake performed by the Ballet Preljocaj, and two operas in concert version. After Tosca with its stellar cast (Aleksandra Kurzak, Roberto Alagna, and Bryn Terfel), Jean-Louis Grinda, director of the Chorégies, offers a one-night-only performance of Il Trovatore starring Anna Netrebko, Yusif Eyvazov, Marie-Nicole Lemieux, and rising soprano Claire de Monteil. Another Verdi masterpiece on the program, La Forza del Destino, an opera that Italians traditionally avoid naming out of superstition, also boasts a magnificent cast: Anna Pirozzi, Ekaterina Semenchuk, Brian Jagde, Michele Pertusi, and Ambrogio Maestri, with Daniele Rustioni conducting. For the first time, the Chorégies d’Orange are teaming up with the Aix-en-Provence Festival, which will take advantage of the vast capacity of the ancient theater to welcome an even larger audience. Reservations are already open.
