Every musical challenge Sabine Devieilhe has taken up in recent years has led to a harvest of praise, prizes, and starred reviews. Her La Monnaie debut in Orphée et Euridice (Gluck/Berlioz) and her recent performance as the Queen of the Night (in Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte) also stunned audiences and critics alike. La Monnaie is delighted to now offer the French coloratura soprano a whole stage to herself. The programme for her first recital at La Monnaie is a thoroughly bleu, blanc et rouge one: an emotional homage to the mélodie française, with works by Claude Debussy, Francis Poulenc, Gabriel Fauré, and Maurice Ravel.

During the past years, Thomas Quasthoff has proved more than once that he enjoys accepting new challenges, and thus, he learned a new instrument: the microphone! His love for jazz, soul, blues, pop and country goes back to Quasthoff’s earliest youth – not as an intermediary interest to while away the hours between “august classics”, but with a passion and an instinctive feeling for the styles of these genres. In the fall of 2020 he can be heard with his new jazz programme at the Bruckner Fest in Linz.
