Opéra national du Rhin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
L' Opéra national du Rhin is an opera company in Eastern France which includes the Opéra in Strasbourg, the company's ballet in Mulhouse (a national centre for choreography since 1985), and the "Jeunes Voix du Rhin", a training centre for young singers, in Colmar. A reflection of its importance is the status of “national opera” which it has held since 1997. Performances of seven or eight operas per season are given in both Strasburg and Mulhouse.
This merger took place in 1972 under orchestra conductor Alain Lombard, with the "Orchestre philharmonique de Strasbourg" and the "Orchestre symphonique de Mulhouse" being the performance orchestras in each location.
