Not to be confused with Miss Julie (Rorem opera), the 1965 opera by Ned Rorem, or Miss Julie (Alwyn opera), the 1977 opera by William Alwyn.

Julie is a one-act chamber opera written by the Belgian composer Philippe Boesmans who is composer-in-residence of the Brussels opera house, La Monnaie. It is based on August Strindberg's 1888 play, Miss Julie, with a libretto by Luc Bondy and Marie Louise-Bischofberger written in German.[1]

It received its premiere production in March 2005 at La Monnaie,[2] and was subsequently seen in Vienna and as part of the July 2005 Festival d‘Aix-en-Provence. A live performance was recorded at Aix-en-Provence and released on DVD.
