A timeless tragic figure, Medea has fascinated artists and audiences for centuries. With this powerful work by Cherubini, the EPHE's Association for Dance and Lyric Arts offers an immersion in a lyrical drama with romantic and deeply moving overtones.

With Medea, Luigi Cherubini created one of the most intense operas in the repertoire, at the crossroads of several musical traditions. The work evokes the expressive power of Sturm und Drang, the nobility of Gluck, and the legacy of late Mozart, while already foreshadowing the dramatic brilliance of Berlioz.

A character of passion and excess, Medea embodies a tragic figure who has continuously inspired poets, painters, and musicians. Made mythical by Maria Callas, the work has regained a prominent place on the international operatic stage.

In this performance organized by the Association for Dance and Lyric Arts of the EPHE, the title role is sung by Marina Rebeka, whose temperament and vocal power promise an intense and captivating interpretation. A rare opportunity to rediscover a masterpiece where the music explores the depths of human passions.
