AOITORI is the community magazine for Japanese people in Belgium.✨
We recently had the privilege of speaking with Christina Scheppelmann, the newly appointed Director of La Monnaie / De Munt.
This interview was conducted just days after popular actor Timothée Chalamet sparked debate across the performing arts world by suggesting that “no one pays attention to opera or ballet anymore.” Does his remark hold any truth?
In this feature, Scheppelmann offers her perspective, sharing thoughtful insights into the enduring relevance of opera through the lens of her expertise.
La Monnaie / De Munt is one of Europe’s leading opera houses.
