Manon wants a life of luxury. Des Grieux, a student, tries to escape his father’s influence, hoping for a freer life with Manon. The uncompromising nature of their wishes becomes the young man’s undoing. «Manon» made Jules Massenet one of France’s leading opera composers of the Belle Époque overnight. Lisette Oropesa is one of the outstanding lyric coloratura sopranos of her generation. French tenor Benjamin Bernheim’s international career began as a member of the International Opernstudio in Zurich.
