From Caldara (for whom it was written) to Vivaldi (undoubtedly the most famous today), Metastasio's libretto of "L'Olimpiade" has inspired more than fifty composers over the centuries! (Duration: approximately 2 hours with intermission)

Interpreting this original libretto in their own way, Jean-Christophe Spinosi, Nathalie Spinosi and Eric Oberdorff offer us a new opera that is remarkably topical. L'Olimpiade is a libretto of infinite humanity: Metastasio presented values such as fidelity, sacrifice, love and surpassing oneself, but also their inevitable flip side: fraud, forced marriages, patriarchy and the commodification of women...
Jean-Christophe Spinosi, Nathalie Spinosi and Eric Oberdorff had the brilliant idea of creating a new opera by adapting this libretto to make it more relevant to today's world.
