The conductor made a name for himself this year with an unforgettable Carmen and the American audience have taken him to their hearts. The cast features world stars, including some making their Met debut. This dual première is made further exciting by Roberto Alagna in the title role, Anna Smirnova as Eboli and Eric Half...varson, who is gifted with a breathtakingly powerful dramatic bass voice, as the Inquisitor.
