Sir David McVicar directs this explosive production of Veridi's tale of love and death he first premiered in 2009. Soprano Anna Netrebko's dramatic and vocal skills are on full display in her next new role at the Met - Leonora, the Verdi heroine who sacrifices her own life for the love of the gypsy troubadour.

The New York Times hails baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky's performance, "He sang with Verdian lyricism, dramatic subtlety and, when called for, chilling intensity as the complex count."
