About the project
For this sixth edition of the participatory project À vos marques, prêts… Chantez !, the 2022 production, titled “Scenes and Choirs of Opera”, highlighted some of the greatest moments in opera (Turandot, Carmen, La Traviata, Méphistophélès, etc.).
Celebrating great moments in opera, it brought together more than 1,000 singers, including the Maîtrise de l’Opéra national du Rhin, 400 amateur singers, and 300 schoolchildren from Strasbourg, alongside professional instrumentalists and soloists.
Since 2017, seven participatory performances have been staged on various Alsatian venues.
In 2022, the performance “Scenes and Choirs of operas” was first presented in concert version at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Paris on June 12, 2022, and then staged with a full production at the Zénith de Strasbourg on June 19, 2022.
