Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts Verdi’s grand tale of ill-fated love,
deadly vendetta, and family strife, with stellar soprano Lise Davidsen
following a string of recent Met triumphs with her role debut as the
noble Leonora, one of the repertory’s most tormented—and
thrilling—heroines. Director Mariusz Trelinski delivers the company’s
first new Forza in nearly 30 years, setting the scene in a contemporary
world and making extensive use of the Met’s turntable to represent the
unstoppable advance of destiny that drives the opera’s chain of
calamitous events. The distinguished cast also features tenor Brian
Jagde as Leonora’s forbidden beloved Don Alvaro, baritone Igor
Golovatenko as her vengeful brother Don Carlo, mezzo-soprano Judit Kutasi
as the fortune teller Preziosilla, bass-baritone Patrick Carfizzi as
Fra Melitone, and bass Soloman Howard as both Leonora’s father and Padre
Guardiano. For the final three performances, soprano Elena Stikhina and mezzo-soprano Maria Barakova take over as Leonora and Preziosilla.
