Although La Traviata, including in the form of Michael Mayer's spectacular production blending romance and decadence, has already been featured in the Met's HD broadcasts, any opportunity to encounter it again is worth seizing, and by no means only because of the unbeatable appeal of Verdi's most popular opera no matter how many times one watches it.

Verdi: La traviata
Although La Traviata, including in the form of Michael Mayer's spectacular production blending romance and decadence, has already been featured in the Met's HD broadcasts, any opportunity to encounter it again is worth seizing, and by no means only because of the unbeatable appeal of Verdi's most popular opera no matter how many times one watches it. In the (title) role of the self-sacrificing Violetta Valéry, we will get to see and hear the American soprano, Nadine Sierra, who while still in her early thirties has already risen to the top of her profession today.
As one favourite story from popular opera history has it, Verdi's serene response to the failure of the 1853 world première of the work in Venice was simply, "Is it my fault or the performers'? Only time will tell." And time, in all its wisdom, has indeed decided: with well over one thousand performances at the Met alone, La Traviata is in most years the most frequently performed opera worldwide. The role of the lost woman Violetta and the diverse demands it entails has been shouldered in New York's citadel of the opera world by a great many divas, even from the very first performance of Traviata there in 1883, with their names ranging from Maria Callas and Renata Tebaldi to Joan Sutherland, Ileana Cotrubaș and Diana Damrau. Joining this roster of a multitude of legends now through the Met broadcasts will be the talented Nadine Sierra, known and admired as Gilda and Idomeneo's Ilia. Portraying the other two protagonists in this performance conducted by Daniele Callegari, the younger and elder Germonts, will be, respectively, the Philadelphia-born tenor Stephen Costello, whose career, like Sierra's, took off after he won the Richard Tucker Award, and Luca Salsi, who drew great attention for singing the title role of Macbeth in a series of 2021 productions.

The aptly named Angelica Girls' Choir, who are led by Zsuzsanna Gráf, and help nurture the legacy of Kodály and Bartók, have captivated Müpa Budapest audiences on several occasions.
The singer, songwriter and producer Zsófia Szigeti released her first track in 2020 under the name of Solére, and quickly became a popular performer of contemporary Hungarian pop music. Her melodic, electronic pop music also found its way to radio, and her initial hits were followed by a 16-track debut album in 2022, IMA.
Taking the stage at Müpa Budapest on this evening will be the creative spirit Philippe Herreweghe joined by the world-famous workshops he founded: the Collegium Vocale Gent and the Orchestre des Champs-Elysées.
