Who are we ?
Lyric Lab is the brainchild of a group of young Belgian singers with a passion for opera. Based in Brussels, its missions are
- the production of opera’s performed by professional singers based in Belgium,
- offering original experiences to bring classical works to life, and
- staging for the general public.
LyricLab aims to bring opera closer to the public, including in places where there are no opera houses. The aim is to enable a wide audience, whether or not they are familiar with opera, to (re)discover operatic works and their significance, which is often still relevant today. We create dynamic productions with, for example, the integration of the theatrical aspect instead of long recitatives, but want to remain faithful to the original works in the interpretation of the arias! In addition, we aim to promote cultural outreach by organising workshops to present the works produced, and by organising performances for school audiences.
Our next production will be “Figaro!”, a dynamic adaptation of “Le nozze di Figaro” (W.A. Mozart) and “Le mariage de Figaro” (P.-A. de Beaumarchais). Our adaptation respects the purpose and grandeur of these historic works, but is presented in an innovative way. Find out more about this forthcoming production here!
