Opera’s indomitable double bill returns in Sir David McVicar’s searing production from the 2014–15 season.

Tenor Yonghoon Lee and soprano Liudmyla Monastyrska star in Cavalleria Rusticana, the tragedy of ancient codes and illicit love, Sicilian style.

In the second half of the pair of verismo potboilers, tenor Robert Alagna is the murderous clown Canio, soprano Barbara Frittoli sings his philandering wife, Nedda, and George Gagnidze is the disloyal Tonio. Met Principal Conductor Fabio Luisi is on the podium.
