Huw returns to the Champs-Elysées, reprising the role of Eisenstein with Les Musiciens du Louvre.

Inspired by a French play written by the librettists of some of Offenbach's greatest successes and soon to be of Carmen, Meilhac and Halévy, La Chauve-souris was Johann Strauss II's first attempt and a stroke of genius. He was the king of waltz and Viennese operetta. A masterpiece that has never aged a day and brilliantly illustrates that golden age of Vienna, which it already seems to nostalgically behold. During a masked ball, scheming and lies whisk away each participant in a whirlwind. La Chauve-souris is an eternal musical gem that depicts an era and its follies with both cynicism and tenderness... And let's bet that Marc Minkowski will infuse the theatricality that he knows how to demonstrate in this kind of repertoire.
