Since 2008, the Opéra Comique’ symposiums have focused on many aspects of lyrical art, gathering many research partners to work together and exchange on both transdisciplinary and international levels. Last year, a forum for discussion brought experts of the industry and students together to exchange on the Opéra-Comique’s current and future hot topics. This year, the discussion goes on over 5 conferences with an introductory lecture.

Free entry subject to registration and presentation of your student card.
