The San Francisco Opera Presents Gounod's Romeo and Juliet. Directed for the screen by Frank Zamacona in 2019

To close France Music Week, an international music week organized from June 16 to 21 by the Ministry of Culture and the National Music Center, we invite you to join us on Saturday, June 21 at 9:10 p.m. in the heart of the Louvre Museum grounds, in the Carrousel gardens, for the Fête de la Musique concert presented by Daphné Bürki and Mohamed Bouhafsi.

This music-packed documentary tells the story of Pene Pati and his brother Amitai Pati, and their against-the-odds journey from Samoa to platinum-selling success in the trio Sol3 Mio and on to the world’s greatest opera stages. Bursting with humour, heart and soaring performances, the film reveals the resilience born of adversity, the richness of family and culture, and the rewards that come from following an unlikely dream.

Goethe's masterpiece set to music by Jules Massenet can be rediscovered on stage at the Opéra Comique, conducted by Raphaël Pichon and directed by Ted Huffman.
