Intérprete: Rolando Villazón

While the semi-staging falters, Hanna-Elisabeth Müller and Magdalena Kožená prove a thrilling pair in Mozart's final opera seria. 

Julie Taymor's whimsical 2004 staging of Mozart's Singspiel continues to please in the Met's condensed, English-language version.

This year’s festival features a rare Handel opera, led by director and countertenor Max Emanuel Cenčić, an unusual production of Monteverdi’s L'Orfeo, and a veritable feast of recitals.
