Tristan & Isolda. Met Opera Openning night.
“SOME OF THE BEST MOMENTS OF OPERA I’VE EVER HEARD ... A PEAK OF THE MET’S PAST DECADE” —New York Magazine
“AN ASTONISHING PERFORMANCE … THE EVENT OF THE SEASON.” —The New York Times
After years of anticipation, a truly unmissable event arrives as the electrifying Lise Davidsen tackles one of the ultimate roles for dramatic soprano: the Irish princess Isolde in Wagner’s transcendent meditation on love and death. Heroic tenor Michael Spyres stars opposite Davidsen as the love-drunk Tristan. The momentous occasion also marks the advent of a new, Met-debut staging by Yuval Sharon—hailed by The New York Times as “the most visionary opera director of his generation” and the first American to direct an opera at the famed Wagner festival in Bayreuth—as well as Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin’s first time leading Tristan und Isolde at the Met. Mezzo-soprano Ekaterina Gubanova reprises her signature portrayal of Brangäne, alongside bass-baritone Tomasz Konieczny, who sings Kurwenal after celebrated Met appearances in Wagner’s Der Fliegende Holländer and Ring cycle. Bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green makes an important role debut as King Marke.
Please note that video cameras will be in operation during the March 17 and March 21 performances as part of the Met’s Live in HD series of cinema transmissions

Program
BARTÓK Piano Concerto No. 3
G. MAHLER Symphony No. 1
Individually, concerts by the Vienna Philharmonic and piano superstar Lang Lang are among classical music’s most sought-after events. In this thrilling Friday-night performance, they join forces on Carnegie Hall’s grandest stage. Lang Lang is featured in Bartók’s unusually graceful Piano Concerto No. 3, highlighting a gentler, more “classically oriented” side of a composer responsible for some of the 20th century’s most important and demanding piano repertoire.
