As in the past, JMC is offering one of the most beloved operas in the repertory, L’Elisir d’amore (The Elixir of Love) by Gaetano Donizetti (1797-1848). First performed in Milan in May of 1832, this melodramma giocoso is truly a theatrical gem, filled with delights and buoyant sentiment. Give in to the enchantment of the elixir and allow a tear to trickle down your cheek. The production comes with sets, costumes, lighting and surtitles and features the country’s rising stars of the operatic stage. » Are you a member or a promoter and want more information ?

"We have to be grateful to Jeunesses Musicales and the St. Cecilia Concert Series for bringing us their superb touring production of Jacques Offenbach’s The Tales of Hoffmann […] The staging was cramped on the small stage. The original opera, after all, calls for 22 singing roles. Jeunesses doubled, tripled and quadrupled up to cut the roll call to just seven singers. But it worked, partly because, apart from principal roles, the characters can be roughly divided into Servants. Fifth Business, Vilains and Devils, but mostly because the voices were so beautiful, all strong, clear and youthful…” - Stephen Pedersen, The Chronicle Herald, Halifax, Nouvelle-Écosse (Concernant l’opéra 2009-2010) Les Contes d’Hoffmann « Another excellent JMC production» - Roger E. Cormier (Acadie-Nouvelle, Nouveau-Brunswick) (Concernant l’opéra 2008-2009) Le Barbier de Séville "In brief, a great moment of opera!" – Raphaël Hovington (Objectif Plein-Jour, Baie-Comeau, QC) (Concernant l’opéra 2006-2007) La flûte enchantée |
