Kaija Saariaho's opera "La Passion de Simone" commemorates the French philosopher and mystic Simone Weil. This personal work, which Saariaho considered her musical testament, marks her third collaboration with author Amin Maalouf and director Peter Sellars. The opera, originally premiered in Vienna in 2006, is now presented at the Cologne Opera, directed by newcomer Friederike Blum and conducted by Christian Karlsen. Further performances are scheduled for May 19, 25, 28, and 31, 2025, as a collaboration between the Cologne Opera and the ACHT BRÜCKEN | Musik für Köln festival.
