With your support, La Monnaie can stand proudly on the podium and get nominated for the FEDORA Generali Prize for Opera Shortlist!
Every year, the FEDORA Prizes support the creation of new opera and ballet productions.
This year, Le Silence des ombres – a world premiere by French composer Benjamin Attahir, directed by Olivier Lexa with lyrics by Maurice Maeterlinck, commissioned by La Monnaie, and performing in September 2019 – is selected in the Opera shortlist and could well win the FEDORA Prize worth € 150,000.
