La Monnaie reserved the fifth performance of The Time of Our Singing exclusively for 200 people enrolled on our social programme ‘A bridge between two worlds’, and approximately 300 secondary-school pupils.
La Monnaie has been organizing Building Bridges performances since 2015 in a bid to give its young and more vulnerable audiences a taste of opera at a much-reduced price or even completely free of charge. This initiative is targeted specifically at those who would like to attend an opera, but do not always have the opportunity or the means to do so.
On this occasion, we welcomed 341 pupils, or 13 classes from 8 different secondary schools, and 231 vulnerable people from various centres and organizations participating in our ‘A bridge between two worlds’ social programme, e.g. Public Centres for Social Welfare (CPASs), assisted-living centres, centres for literacy, mental health services, etc.
This autumn, sail through the cultural heartland of Middle-Europe. From 6 to 23 November 2025, Rivages du Monde and La Monnaie invite you to a musical cruise on the Danube to mark the 10th anniversary of the MM Academy.
To expand its ranks and welcome new voices, the Cassandra Choir is organising two audition evenings, on 20 and 27 January 2025!
On November 25th, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, La Monnaie shows its commitment to this cause by supporting the organisation Zonta.
