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.
Please note that Akhnaten will be performed without subtitles, except for scene titles and select texts. Director Phelim McDermott’s goal is to create a theatrical experience that is beyond words, plot information and conventional storytelling. He wants the audience for Akhnaten to be overtaken by the hypnotic nature of the music, the visual imagery and the pageant-like nature of the piece.

One of America’s favourite 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.
暌違將近30年後,美國超級熱門歌劇再次重返大都會歌劇院。詹姆斯·羅賓森(James Robinson)發揮獨特製作風格,帶領觀眾前往查爾斯頓濱水的鯰魚街,感受鮮明的樂音、舞蹈與情感,體會當地居民的傷痛。這部新劇作於2018年在倫敦首演,《衛報》評論讚譽道:「若要演出蓋希文的歌劇,這就是典範」。由大衛·羅伯森(David Robertson)負責統理指揮精采的演員陣容,埃里克·歐文斯(Eric Owens)與安潔兒·布魯(Angel Blue)同台飆戲,帶來扣人心弦的演出。本次豪華陣容還包括戈爾達·舒爾茲(Golda Schultz)、拉東婭·摩爾(Latonia Moore)、丹妮絲·葛瑞芙絲(Denyce Graves)、費德里克·巴倫提尼(Frederick Ballentine)、阿爾弗雷·沃克(Alfred Walker)以及萊恩.斯畢多.葛林(Ryan Speedo Green)。
