By Laurent Duval, MonacoViews Editorial
The Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo will dedicate its Sunday concert on 10 May 2026 to marking the bicentenary of German composer Carl Maria von Weber's death.
On Sunday 10 May 2026, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo will turn its full attention to Carl Maria von Weber, the German Romantic composer whose influence on opera and orchestral writing remains significant two centuries on. The concert marks the bicentenary of his death in 1826.
For residents who follow the Philharmonique's season closely, this is the kind of commemorative programme the orchestra handles well, placing Monaco in a broader European conversation about classical heritage. Details on repertoire and soloists are expected to be confirmed closer to the date.
