Composer: Charles Gounod

Conductor: Gianandrea Noseda

Featuring: Diana Damrau, Vittorio Grigolo

When Diana Damrau and Vittorio Griolo starred opposite each other in Manon at the Met in 2015, the New York Times said, “the temperature rises nearly to boiling every time Damrau and Grigolo are on stage together.” Now they’re back as opera’s classic lovers in Gounod’s lush Shakespeare adaptation. Bartlett Sher’s new production has already won acclaim for its vital 18th century milieu and stunning costumes during runs as Salsburg and La Scala. Gianandrea Noseda conducts the sumptuous score.
