2019/12/04

The Opéra de Monte Carlo will welcome Italian mezzo soprano Cecilia Bartoli as the next director. The announcement was made on December 3 by Princess Caroline, the president. The term of office is from January 2023. Successor to Jean-Louis Grinda.

The Monte Carlo Opera is the National Opera of Monaco and was founded in 1879 by Prince Charles III. The building was designed by Charles Garnier, who worked on the Paris Opera. Opera Works such as Ravel “L’enfant et les sortilèges” and Puccini “La Rondine” are premiered at this theater.

Bartoli was born in Rome at the age of 53 and lives in Switzerland. Attracted attention as a Rossini singer at a young age, continues to play an active role as the leading Mezzo-soprano. She has a noble voice with no resentment. In addition to Mozart, she has recently been passionate about discovering and replaying Vivaldi’s opera.
