One of the most lavish productions in the Met's repertory, the opera stars soprano Christine Goerke in the title role, opposite tenor Yusif Eyvazov as Calàf, who sings "Nessun dorma,"one of the most famous arias in all of opera.
The cast also features soprano Eleonora Buratto as Liù and bass-baritone James Morris as Timur, with Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducting his first Puccini opera with the company.
