]]> Launched in 2022 with Ariane et Bacchus by Marin Marais, the cycle of Baroque operas presented by Hervé Niquet and the Centre de musique baroque de Versailles at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées will come to an end on February 14, 2025.

Following Médée by Marc-Antoine Charpentier and Iphigénie en Tauride by Henri Desmarest and André Campra, a flamboyant Persée by Lully will conclude this Baroque tetralogy in Niquet’s rendition. The joint residency of Le Concert Spirituel and the CMBV at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées also comes to a close on Valentine’s evening, although the love story continues as all the operas have been recorded and released under the Alpha Classics label.

For those eager to discover rare gems or revisit cornerstone works of the repertoire, such as this mature Persée by Lully, the stage will feature Mathias Vidal, Reinoud Van Mechelen, Michèle Losier, Déborah Cachet, as well as the Pages and Chantres of the Centre de musique baroque de Versailles, always impeccably prepared by Fabien Armengaud.
