October 16, 2008 |
The Met Live in HD will launch its 11-show 2008-09 season with a gala opening night featuring Renée Fleming in a trio of lyrical performances including Verdi’s La Traviata (Act II), Massenet’s Manon (Act III), and Richard Strauss’ Capriccio (Final Scene).
This initial performance of New York’s unparalleled Metropolitan Opera aired September 22.
