Programme
Overview

The Latvian mezzo-soprano presents her personal favourites. With arias by Giuseppe Verdi, Camille Saint-Saëns, Georges Bizet and Francesco Cilea as well as selected Italian songs.

When a young Latvian mezzo-soprano made her debut at the Vienna State Opera in 2003 with the small but fine role of Lola in “Cavalleria rusticana,” many in the audience probably suspected that a future star was waiting in the wings. And indeed: her big breakthrough came shortly afterwards with Mozart's “La clemenza di Tito” under the direction of Nikolaus Harnoncourt at the Salzburg Festival. Since then,  Elīna Garanča has been  one of the most sought-after mezzo-sopranos in the world and at home in the most important opera houses. In addition to her dark, sensual voice and intelligent role design, the multiple award-winning singer also has a breathtaking stage presence. For a long time her repertoire included specialist trouser roles such as Mozart's Cherubino or Strauss' Octavian. Since she made her debut as Bizet's Carmen in 2007, she has increasingly lent her full, warmly timbred mezzo-soprano to the great seductresses of opera literature, such as Saint-Saëns' Dalila and Wagner's Kundry.

Accompanied by the  Vienna Chamber Orchestra  under the direction of Garanča's husband  Karel Mark Chichon,  the singer will bring her personal “best of” arias by Bizet, Verdi and Saint-Saëns as well as a selection of Italian songs to the Isarphilharmonie.

Venue Info

Isar Philharmonic - Munich
Location   Hans-Preißinger-Straße 8

Isarphilharmonie is Munich’s most modern concert hall.

Since the Isarphilharmonie opened in October 2021, it has quickly gained a reputation for its special atmosphere and excellent sound. The list of orchestras performing here reads like a veritable Who’s Who, headed by the Munich Philharmonic, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Munich Chamber Orchestra. High profile concert agencies see the auditorium as the perfect place for guest appearances by national and international orchestras and it also hosts jazz productions and large-scale popular music concerts of all genres.

But the Isarphilharmonie also has another string to its bow: it can be blacked out, making it the ideal venue for film screenings – with or without orchestral accompaniment.

The building that houses the Isarphilharmonie is a steel structure with an internal volume of nearly 60,000 cubic metres. The concert hall itself can accommodate almost 2000 guests and is made from prefabricated solid wood elements. The walls are clad with black-stained softwood panels, while the stage and floors are made from light cedar wood for a striking contrast.
