Simon Keenlyside in the title role and Natalie Dessay as Ophelia bring their extraordinary acting and singing skills to two of Shakespeare’s most unforgettable characters. When the production by Patrice Caurier and Moshe Leiser opened at London’s Royal Opera House, Keenlyside’s portrayal was called “a revelation... thrilling throughout.” Louis Langrée conducts; with Jennifer Larmore, Toby Spence, and James Morris. The works of Shakespeare have inspired more operatic adaptations than any other writer’s. Simon Keenlyside and Natalie Dessay bring their extraordinary acting and singing skills to two of the Bard’s most unforgettable characters in this new production of Ambroise Thomas’s Hamlet. For the role of Ophelia, the French composer created an extended mad scene that is among the greatest in opera.

Renée Fleming stars opposite no fewer than six tenors. Mary Zimmerman directs this Met premiere Armida.  Riccardo Frizza conducts; Lawrence Brownlee, Bruce Ford, José Manuel Zapata, Barry Banks, and Kobie van Rensburg. This mythical story of a sorceress who enthralls men in her island prison has inspired operatic settings by a multitude of composers, including Gluck, Haydn, and Dvorák. Renée Fleming stars in the title role of Rossini’s version, opposite no fewer than six tenors. Tony Award winner Mary Zimmerman returns to direct this new production of a work she describes as “a buried treasure, a box of jewels.” The fanciful and magical tale, Zimmerman says, “has an epic, enchanted quality and a tremendous visual element.”
