AGRIPINA
Handel’s tale of intrigue and impropriety in ancient
Rome receives its first Met performances, with star mezzo-soprano Joyce
DiDonato as the controlling, power-hungry Agrippina and Harry Bicket
conducting. Sir David McVicar’s production ingeniously reframes the action of
this black comedy about the abuse of power to “the present,” where it should
loudly resonate. The all-star cast features mezzo-soprano Kate Lindsey as
Agrippina’s son and future emperor Nerone, soprano Brenda Rae as the seductive
Poppea, countertenor Iestyn Davies as the ambitious officer Ottone, and bass
Matthew Rose as the weary emperor Claudius.
This production was
originally created by the Théâtre Royal de la Monnaie / De Munt Brussels and
adapted by the Metropolitan Opera
AKHNATEN
Director Phelim McDermott tackles another one of
Philip Glass’s masterpieces, following the now-legendary Met staging of Satyagraha.
Star countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo is the title pharaoh, the revolutionary
ruler who transformed ancient Egypt, with the striking mezzo-soprano J’Nai
Bridges in her Met debut as his wife, Nefertiti. To match the opera’s hypnotic,
ritualistic music, McDermott has created an arresting vision that includes a
virtuosic company of acrobats and jugglers. Karen Kamensek conducts in her Met
debut.
This production was
originally created by English National Opera and LA Opera
DER FLIEGENDE
HOLLANDER
The great bass-baritone Sir Bryn Terfel returns to the
company for the first time since 2012, in the title role of the cursed sea
captain doomed to sail the open ocean for eternity. Valery Gergiev conducts a
new production by François Girard, whose visionary 2013 take on Parsifal set
the recent Met standard for Wagner stagings. With sweeping sets by John
Macfarlane, Girard’s new production turns the Met stage into a rich, layered
tableau reminiscent of a vast oil painting. The gifted German soprano Anja
Kampe, in her Met debut, is the devoted Senta, whose selfless love is what the
Dutchman seeks, with bass Franz-Josef Selig as her father, Daland, and tenor
Sergey Skorokhodov as her deserted former lover, Erik.

PORGY AND BESS
By George Gershwin, DuBose and Dorothy Heyward, and Ira Gershwin
One of America’s favorite operas returns to the Met for the first time in nearly 30 years. James Robinson’s stylish production transports audiences to Catfish Row on the Charleston waterfront, vibrant with the music, dancing, emotion, and heartbreak of its inhabitants. “If you’re going to stage Gershwin’s opera, this is how,” raved the Guardian when the new production premiered in London in 2018. David Robertson conducts a dynamic cast, featuring the sympathetic duo of Eric Owens and Angel Blue in the title roles and an all-star ensemble that includes Golda Schultz, Latonia Moore, Denyce Graves, Frederick Ballentine, Alfred Walker, and Ryan Speedo Green.

TOSCA
Soprano Anna
Netrebko, whom the New York Times hailed as “magnificent” when she made
her role debut as Tosca in 2018, returns as Puccini’s explosive diva, back by
popular demand. Tenors Najmiddin Mavlyanov and Brian Jagde alternate as the
idealistic painter Cavaradossi, and baritones George Gagnidze and Michael Volle
complete the opera’s fatal love triangle as the sinister Scarpia. Bertrand
de Billy conducts Sir David McVicar’s stunning production.

After wowing audiences with
his astounding production of Lulu in 2015, South African artist William
Kentridge now focuses his extraordinary visual imagination on Berg’s other
operatic masterpiece, set in an apocalyptic pre–World War I environment. Met
Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin is on the podium for this important event,
with baritone Peter Mattei making his highly anticipated role debut as the
title character. Soprano Elza van den Heever is Wozzeck’s unfaithful mate, and
the commanding cast also includes tenor Christopher Ventris as the Drum-Major,
bass-baritone Christian Van Horn as the Doctor, and tenor Gerhard Siegel as the
Captain.
