One Breath, a Thousand Destinies: Great Opera Choruses.

Forget the demanding divas and solitary heroes! For this concert, the true protagonist is the crowd. Exiled slaves, fiery toreadors, repentant pilgrims, and majestic nobles take the stage by storm.

The Chœur Classique de Montréal invites you on a breathtaking journey through history's most magnificent opera choruses: Verdi, Wagner, Bizet. Let yourself be overwhelmed by the raw, earth-shaking power of united voices rising in a breath that is at times epic, at times romantic and at times nostalgic.
