DESCRIPTION:
Experience award-winning opera as you’ve never seen it before—larger than life with better-than-front-row angles, glorious sound, and exclusive access behind the scenes. This live cinema transmission is part of the Metropolitan Opera’s award-winning Live in HD series, bringing performances from New York City to audiences across the globe with the finest artists and newest technology.

Three captivating sopranos with many previous triumphs to their names—Nadine Sierra, Ermonela Jaho, and Angel Blue—star as the self-sacrificing courtesan Violetta, one of opera’s ultimate heroines. Tenors Stephen Costello, Ismael Jordi (in his Met debut), and Dmytro Popov share the role of her self-centered lover Alfredo, alongside baritones Luca Salsi, Amartuvshin Enkhbat (another debut), and Artur Ruciński as his disapproving father. Michael Mayer’s vibrant production also features three maestros: Daniele Callegari, Marco Armiliato, and Nicola Luisotti.

Schedule:
12 p.m.: Pre-opera discussion about La Traviata with Ken Cazan, resident stage director for the USC Thornton Opera
