Nice, France: Opera and Baroque Tour with Gilbert Blin

Alessandro Scarlatti’s Il Tigrane in the Côte d’Azur’s cosmopolitan capital!

Visit Nice, France, for a three-night stay at Le Méridien Nice, one of the area’s finest hotels on the Baie des Anges. Experience Il Tigrane, Alessandro Scarlatti’s 1715 opera seria, as brought to life by Gilbert Blin, BEMF’s Stage Director in Residence. Presented by l’Opéra de Nice and Ensemble Baroque de Nice, this performance will feature some of BEMF’s most cherished vocal artists, including Yulia Van Doren, Mireille Lebel, José Lemos, and Douglas Williams.

The day following the opera performance, join M. Blin for his Baroque Tour of Nice. Learn about the area’s rich history and its strong ties to both France and Italy on this unique and personal walking tour. Your exhilarating day concludes at Nice’s Restaurant Le Hussard where you will enjoy dinner and conversation with M. Blin and BEMF Executive Director Kathleen Fay, who will be in town herself for this beautiful event.

Compliments of Gilbert Blin and Kathleen Fay
