September 21 to 26
A week dedicated to contemporary opera creation, encounters, and new forms of music theatre.
Chants Libres is a creative opera company based in Montreal. It brings together artists from different disciplines to explore the voice, the body, and storytelling, and to imagine new possibilities for opera.
Its creations, the Laboratoires Lyrik, and OPER’ACTUEL provide spaces where works can be developed, experimented with, and shared.
There are forms that reassure.
And others that disrupt.
Chants Libres does not seek to reproduce opera.
The company works to transform it.
Here, lyricism becomes a space for experimentation.
