Richard Strauss and Hugo von Hofmannsthal’s last joint opera, Arabella is a cheerful and poignant farewell to a bygone, peaceful Vienna. It now returns to the MET’s repertoire in Otto Schenk’s 1983 production, following his sad passing this year. The leading roles are filled by singers who understand and embody the quintessentially Viennese nature of work that is not far from being categorised as an operetta. We welcome familiar faces onto the stage in this production conducted by Nicholas Carter. Rachel Willis-Sørensen has already achieved a memorable triumph at Müpa Budapest, and the same can be said of the tenor Pavol Breslik and the bass baritone Tomasz Konieczny. The latter is a regular performer at the Budapest Wagner Days.

The broadcast will be sung in the original language, and shown with Hungarian and English subtitles.

The ‘Metropolitan Opera Live in HD’ transmissions have been made possible through the cooperation of our partner, liveincinema.eu s.r.o.
