]]> Premiered in Paris at the Opéra Comique on April 30, 1902, Claude Debussy’s masterpiece Pelléas et Mélisande took several decades to enter the repertoire of the Opéra national de Paris, debuting there on March 18, 1977. Similarly, Sabine Devieilhe has waited before taking on this iconic role in a staged production.

Having already performed it in concert, the divine soprano will finally grace the stage as Mélisande in a new production at France’s premier opera house, running from February 28 to March 27, 2025. This much-anticipated event marks the return of celebrated theater director Wajdi Mouawad to the Opéra Bastille, following his acclaimed staging of Enescu’s Œdipe. Special care has been taken with the cast surrounding Sabine Devieilhe: the dazzling young baritone Huw Montague Rendall, a rising star, will portray Pelléas, with Gordon Bintner as Golaud, alongside Sophie Koch and Jean Teitgen as Geneviève and Arkel.
