Soprano Angel Blue makes her long-awaited Met role debut as the
Ethiopian princess torn between love and country, one of opera’s defining roles. Music
Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium for the New Year’s Eve premiere of
Michael Mayer’s spectacular new staging, which brings audiences inside the towering
pyramids and gilded tombs of ancient Egypt with intricate projections and dazzling
animations. Mezzo-soprano Judit Kutasi, following her 2024 debut in Verdi’s La Forza
del Destino, is Aida’s Egyptian rival Amneris, sharing the role with Elīna Garanča, who
returns to the Met for the first time since 2020. Leading tenors Piotr Beczała and Brian
Jagde alternate as the soldier Radamès, who completes the greatest love triangle in
the repertory. The all-star cast also features baritones Quinn Kelsey and Amartuvshin
Enkhbat and bass-baritone Eric Owens as Amonasro and basses Dmitry Belosselskiy,
Alexander Vinogradov, and Morris Robinson as Ramfis. Christina Nilsson makes her Met
debut in the title role in March, and Alexander Soddy shares conducting duties.

A jilted bride driven to madness, a baronet cursed to perform wicked deeds, a local guild of disgruntled professional bridesmaids, the village beauty held hostage by etiquette, the shy farmer she loves, the heroic sailor prepared to sacrifice friendship to win her hand, and ghosts! An ancient witch’s curse has condemned each heir of Ruddigore to commit a crime a day or perish in agony. Refusing to submit to this fate, the latest baronet of Ruddigore fakes his death and goes into hiding in the local village as timid farmer Robin Oakapple leaving his younger brother, Sir Despard, to shoulder the family curse. When his identity is betrayed, will the shy and honest Robin be able to stomach the family tradition of moustache-twirling villainy-for-life or will his exasperated ancestors return from the grave to haunt him? Gilbert and Sullivan’s satirical take on Melodrama and the Victorian obsession with the supernatural, Ruddigore turns the gothic romance tropes of Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and The Picture of Dorian Gray on their head in this zany comedy operetta that will delight the whole family.

Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts his first Met performances
of Strauss’s white-hot one-act tragedy, which receives its first new
production at the company in 20 years. Claus Guth, one of Europe’s leading opera
directors, gives the biblical story—already filtered through the beautiful and strange
imagination of Oscar Wilde’s play—a psychologically perceptive Victorian-era setting rich
in symbolism and subtle shades of darkness and light. Headlining the new staging is
soprano Elza van den Heever as the abused and unhinged antiheroine, who demands
the head of Jochanaan, sung by celebrated baritone Peter Mattei. Tenor Gerhard Siegel
is Salome’s lecherous stepfather, King Herod, with mezzo-soprano Michelle DeYoung as
his wife, Herodias, and tenor Piotr Buszewski as Narraboth. Derrick Inouye conducts two
performances in May.
