Following triumphant Live in HD performances in Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette, Verdi’s La
Traviata, and Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor, Nadine Sierra summits another peak of the
soprano repertoire as Amina, who sleepwalks her way into audiences’ hearts in Bellini’s
poignant tale of love lost and found. In his new production, Rolando Villazón—the tenor who
has embarked on a brilliant second career as a director—retains the opera’s original setting
in the Swiss Alps but uses its somnambulant plot to explore the emotional and psychological
valleys of the mind. Tenor Xabier Anduaga co-stars as Amina’s fiancé, Elvino, alongside
soprano Sydney Mancasola as her rival, Lisa, and bass Alexander Vinogradov as Count
Rodolfo. Riccardo Frizza takes the podium for one of opera’s most ravishing works, which
will be transmitted live from the Met stage to cinemas on October 18.
