We will also have the return of Placido Domingo performing te baritone role of Verdi’s title role of “Nabucco” and we will also have, next year, the farewell performance of Renée Fleming in her last Opera performance in Strauss’ “Der Rosenkavalier” It is important to say that in Wagner’s Der Fliegende Hollände we will have the great return of extraordinary Tenor Jay Hunter Morris in the role of Erik, after his memorable portrayal of Siegfried in Wagner’s Ring a few years ago.
Wagner’s Der Fliegende Holländer will also return to the MET after an absence of many years and also Beethoven’s only Opera Fidelio. There are many interesting things to comment about this year’s new season of the MET, first, Rossini’s Guillaume Tell returns to the Met stage after an absence of more than 80 years and another exciting about this productions is that it is the French version in which is rarely performed in these days (compared to the Italian version). Rossini, Mozart, Verdi, Wagner and Richard Strauss are the composers that dominated this season.
