Marc-Antoine Charpentier's Médée (1693) is widely regarded as the crowning masterpiece of the French Baroque, and the composer's only opera. Set to a libretto by Thomas Corneille, the tragedy charts the story of a woman betrayed — abandoned by Jason, Médée exacts an unbearable revenge.
Contralto Marie-Nicole Lemieux takes on the title role for the first time, facing Czech tenor Petr Nekoranec as Jason. The cast also includes Juliette Mey (Créuse), Frédéric Caton (Créon), Etienne Bazola (Oronte), Camille Poul (Nérine), and Claire Lefilliatre (Cléone). The Chœur de Chambre de Namur and Ensemble Les Épopées are conducted by Stéphane Fuget.
The opera runs approximately 3 hours 15 minutes with interval. Sung and surtitled in French. Tickets: 48 / 37 / 33 / 28 euros.
