Il Trovatore – Giuseppe Verdi
June 26, at 7 PM
David McVicar’s stirring production of Verdi’s intense drama premiered at the Met in the 2008–09 season. This revival stars four extraordinary singers — Sondra Radvanovsky, Dolora Zajick, Marcelo Álvarez, and Dmitri Hvorostovsky — in what might be the composer’s most melodically rich score.
Libretto by Salvadore Cammarano and Leone Emanuele Bardare, based on the play El Trovador by Antonio García Gutiérrez.
