Product list - Festival d'Aix-en-Provence

To celebrate its 75th anniversary, the Festival d'Aix published a special issue of the magazine L'Avant-Scène Opéra in 2023. It retraces the Festival's history and gives a wide audience a glimpse behind the scenes of this not-to-be-missed opera event since its creation in 1948.

With numerous specialist focuses, the issue retraces the diversity of the Festival's repertoire: Mozart, works from the Baroque repertoire, but also lyrical creation and contemporary music, not forgetting the place given to the rarest works of bel canto. The book also looks back over the careers of all the artists, orchestras and personalities who have shaped the institution. Finally, it explores the specific features of the Festival, recounts the workings of the teams throughout the year in Aix-en-Provence, and thus retraces part of the history of 20th and 21st century music.

Discover this multi-faceted history by going behind the scenes of the institution and its programming with this new, richly illustrated volume!
