Midi du Festival - Collective Creation: Sharing Opera

While recent social issues are helping to shape new models based on equality and sustainability, opera can reflect these diverse social commitments. How can we deconstruct the structures of pre-existing power in the world of opera and musical creation, in order to imagine new perspectives? Creating different stories, privileging cross-disciplinary dialogue, and thinking of relationships in terms of their horizontality are just some of the paths to be explored in order to experience the world and navigate its challenges.
