Atelier Lyrique

2013-2014 SEASON

The Paris Opera is offering a training programme to give young singers and coaches on the threshold of their career the best possible opportunities to achieve professional success.

The aim of the Atelier Lyrique is to prepare these young artists for the conditions of their future profession by providing them with first-hand experience of the stage and by giving the public the chance to discover their work through concerts and operatic performances.

Above all, it is crucial for them to learn how to interpret a score, understand its intrinsic drama, acquire a sense of musical discipline and discover what it is to be fully committed to a musical and theatrical project.
