Lush, seductive, and emotionally charged, Samson et Dalila explores love, betrayal, and the cost of vulnerability. Saint-Saëns sweeping score amplifies the psychological tension between the heroic Samson and the enigmatic Dalila. Anchored by the hauntingly beautiful aria “Mon cœur s’ouvre à ta voix” and thrilling dramatic choruses, this grand opera delivers passion, spectacle, and unforgettable musical intensity.

Samson et Dalila is presented in French with projected English supertitles.
