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

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.
