Showing in:
Following a string of awe-inspiring Met performances, soprano Lise Davidsen stars as Leonore, who risks everything to save her husband from the clutches of tyranny. Tenor David Butt Philip is the political prisoner Florestan, sharing the stage with bass-baritone Tomasz Konieczny as the villainous Don Pizarro, veteran bass Ren Pape as the jailer Rocco, and soprano Ying Fang and tenor Magnus Dietrich, in his company debut, as the young Marzelline and Jaquino. Bass Stephen Milling sings the principled Don Fernando, and Susanna Mlkki conducts the Mets striking production, which finds modern-day parallels in Beethovens stirring paean to freedom. This live cinema transmission is part of the Mets award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.
