The Met: Live in HD—Aida
American soprano Angel Blue headlines as the Ethiopian princess torn between love and country
in a new production of Verdi’s Aida by Michael Mayer that brings audiences inside the towering
pyramids and gilded tombs of ancient Egypt with intricate projections and dazzling animations.
Romanian-Hungarian mezzo-soprano Judit Kutasi also stars as Aida’s rival, Amneris, alongside
Polish tenor Piotr Beczała as the soldier Radamès—completing opera’s greatest love triangle.
Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium to conduct the January 25
performance.
The Met: Live in HD is the Metropolitan Opera’s award-winning series of live high-definition cinema simulcasts. Simulcasts feature the full performance along with backstage interviews and commentary.
