MET OPERA LIVE IN HD: FALSTAFF
GIUSEPPE VERDI
2013-2014 HD OPERA SEASON
DECEMBER 14, 2013 @ 12:55 PM
RUN TIME: 3 HRS 20 MIN
An undisputed master of Falstaff, Music Director James Levine conducts Verdi’s opera for the first time at the Met since 2005. Robert Carsen’s production—the first new Met Falstaff since 1964—is set in the English countryside in the mid-20th century. Ambrogio Maestri (last season’s Dulcamara in the Opening Night production of L’Elisir d’Amore) sings the title role of the brilliant and blustery Sir John Falstaff, opposite a marvelous ensemble that includes Angela Meade, Stephanie Blythe, Lisette Oropesa, and Franco Vassallo.
