LE FORMIDABLE RETOUR DE LUIS MARIANO

As part of the 22nd edition of the City of Nice's Operetta and Musical Comedy Festival.

Who among us has never sung along to a few of Luis Marino's melodies? A symbol of the golden age of the French operetta, the famous Basque tenor still, and more so than ever, holds a place in the hearts of music lovers. Alice Meregaglia and Sophie Peretti-Trouche bring some of his most dazzling hits to life.

Whether it's the delicate melismas of Belle de Cadix or the jubilant flights of the Chanteur de Mexico, Luis Mariano's art has always been a firm favourite among aficionados. It is this entire era – so colourful and effervescent – that we hope to bring to life for you, with some of the most beautiful and rightly celebrated works of the repertoire by Francis Lopez, Vincent Scotto and others, immortalised in their time by the ever-so-luminous and bewitching voice of the most charming of tenors: Luis Mariano.

With Alice Meregaglia conducting and the choreography of Sophie Peretti-Trouche, we are immersed in these immortal hits once again. A superb tribute to the blessed days of the French operetta!
