Libretto by Giovanni Schmidt
This story of a sorceress who enthralls men in her island prison has inspired operatic settings by a multitude of composers, including Gluck, Haydn, and Dvorak. Rene Fleming stars in the title role of Rossini’s version, opposite no fewer than six tenors. Tony Award winner Mary Zimmerman returns to direct this new production of a work she describes as "a buried treasure, a box of jewels." The fanciful and magical tale, Zimmerman says, "has an epic, enchanted quality and a tremendous visual element."
Cast, repertory, and schedule subject to change.
The Metropolitan Opera, now celebrating its 126th anniversary season, has selected Charlottesville’s Paramount Theater as a broadcast venue for the fourth series of The Met: Live in HD.
