Matthias Goerne live in Paris

Experience Matthias Goerne live on January 24th

Matthias Goerne, a highly regarded German baritone, will perform at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris on January 24, 2027. Goerne is celebrated for his interpretations of Lieder, particularly those by Schubert, Schumann, and Mahler, and is known for a rich, nuanced vocal tone and deeply expressive phrasing. His repertoire also extends to operatic roles and concert works from the Baroque period through the 20th century. He frequently collaborates with leading accompanists and orchestras worldwide.

The Théâtre des Champs-Elysées holds a significant place in Parisian cultural history. Opened in 1913, it was conceived as a venue dedicated to modern art forms – opera, ballet, and symphonic music – in response to perceived conservatism at the Opéra Garnier. Its construction faced initial opposition but quickly became a hub for innovative performances. Notable early associations include performances led by Igor Stravinsky (whose *The Rite of Spring* famously premiered there) and Sergei Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes.

Architecturally, the theatre blends classical and Art Deco elements.
