The Met: Semiramide
March 17, 2018, 12:55 PM – 4:45 PM
$15 – $20
Music by Gioachino Rossini
This masterpiece of dazzling vocal fireworks makes a rare Met appearance — its first in nearly 25 years — with Maurizio Benini on the podium. The all-star bel canto cast features Angela Meade in the title role of the murderous Queen of Babylon, who squares off in breathtaking duets with Arsace, a trouser role sung by Elizabeth DeShong. Javier Camarena, Ildar Abdrazakov, and Ryan Speedo Green complete the stellar cast.
(This performance is a live, high-definition broadcast from the Metropolitan Opera in New York City. The running time is four hours, including one intermission.)
Tickets: $20 Adults, $18 Seniors, $15 Students. (Prices do not include per ticket handling fees.)
