Events Description

 

Opera Atelier presents the fully staged Canadian premiere of Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s David and Jonathan. The opera explores the explosive relationship between Saul, the King of Israel, his son Jonathan, and David, the young hero and slayer of Goliath.

The production will feature the Artists of Atelier Ballet and will be accompanied by Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra under the baton of Opera Atelier Music Director David Fallis with the Tafelmusik Chamber Choir.

Co-Artistic Directors Marshall Pynkoski and Jeannette Lajeunesse Zingg staged and choreographed David and Jonathan in 2022 in the Royal Chapel in Versailles. The production included the most important interpreters of French baroque opera in France along with Artists of Atelier Ballet as special guests.

Critics from North America, Europe, and the Middle East flew to Versailles for its premiere, which enjoyed unprecedented success and was later released as an award-winning CD and DVD. Do not miss your chance to see the acclaimed production in its Canadian premiere.
