Marine Chagnon charmed audiences when she appeared in France TV’s iconic Victoires de la Musique Classique as “Révélation Lyrique” in 2023; and in a subsequent gala concert at Palais Garnier, broadcast by Arte and conducted by Gustavo Dudamel, she enchanted the house with her standout performance of Bernstein’s Trouble in Tahiti, showcasing her versatility across diverse musical eras.
A former member of the Paris Opera Academy, the 2025/26 season will see Chagnon debut at Teatro alla Scala — as Mercedes in Damiano Michieletto’s production of Carmen under their new music director, Myung-whun Chung; at Opéra Royal de Versailles as Métella in La Vie Parisienne in the production designed and directed by Christian Lacroix and at Opéra National de Bordeaux as Flora in La Traviata, conducted by Tito Ceccherini and in a staging by Pierre Rambert.
Graduating from Académie into the ensemble of Opéra National de Paris, Marine Chagnon carved out a distinctive presence on the main stage where her performances — ranging from Tebaldo (Don Carlos) and Zerlina (Don Giovanni) to the title-role in L’enfant et les sortilèges — revealed her as a natural performer of striking beauty; and her portrayal of Cicinella in Les brigands in Barrie Kosky’s outrageous re-staging of Offenbach’s operetta, allowed her to explore her gift of comic timing.
