2021-2022 Operas within Driving Distance (coming soon)
June 5. Benjamin Britten: Billy Budd
The 1997 Billy Budd remains one of the Met's great recorded performances. The performance has been available on video for years, and spotlights three magnificent performances by Dwayne Croft, James Morris, and Philip Langridge.
May 29. Verdi, Otello
This 2015 production opened the Met season with Aleksandrs Antonenko in the title role, with Sonya Yoncheva as his wife Desdemona and Željko Lučić as Otello's second-in-command, Iago.
May 22. Bellini: I Puritani
This 2017 performance was a triumph for Javier Camarena and Diana Damrau as the almost ill-fated lovers.
