Roberto Alagna and Aleksandra Kurzak to Perform From France in Met Stars Live in Concert

As part of the Metropolitan Opera's Met Stars Live in Concert series, Roberto Alagna and Aleksandra Kurzak will perform from an outdoor terrace in Èze, France.

Their performance in the Met Stars Live in Concert is part of new pay-per-view recitals from around the world.

The duo will perform on Sunday, August 16 at 1:30 p.m. ET. Tickets for each recital are $20.

According to the Met Opera's website, "The dynamic husband-and-wife duo of tenor Roberto Alagna and soprano Aleksandra Kurzak give a concert of arias and duets, accompanied by string quintet, from an outdoor terrace in Èze, France, with a spectacular view of the Mediterranean. From the rhapsodic love duet from Madama Butterfly to the hilarious hijinks of "Caro elisir" from L'Elisir d'Amore to surprising selections such as the Mexican favorite "Cielito lindo," the program promises to be a joyful encapsulation of these two inimitable artists."
