Alte Oper Frankfurt

A program bursting with temperament and radiant orchestral colors. Hector Berlioz, the master of orchestration, will perform twice when the London Symphony Orchestra makes a guest appearance at the Alte Oper in a new era: Sir Antonio Pappano was the orchestra's chief conductor designate for one season and will finally take up his post with the long-established British orchestra in the 2024/25 season. He will then not only bring Berlioz's swashbuckling overture "Le Corsaire" to the Great Hall with his Londoners, but will also have his Symphonie fantastique tell its episodes from the life of an artist between passion, country life and witches' sabbaths. The London Symphony Orchestra and Pappano thus frame Lisa Batiashvili's view of Mozart's Fifth Violin Concerto, in which the Viennese classic spares neither beautiful sound nor tongue-in-cheek surprise effects.

After the concert, there will be an opportunity to celebrate the gradual end of the season together. You are invited to enjoy a free drink. You can enjoy the view of the city from the terrace of the Opéra restaurant. © Samy Hart
