A new production of Christoph Willibald Gluck's operatic take on the classic Orpheus tale.
Last seen at the Met in the title role of Philip Glass’s Akhnaten, countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo stars as the mythic hero who ventures into the Underworld to rescue his beloved Euridice.
Soprano Ying Fang plays his ill-fated bride, with soprano Elena Villalón in her company debut as Amore, the god of love who sets Orfeo on his quest. Christian Curnyn makes his Met debut conducting Gluck’s famous rendition of the classic tale, brought to life with exuberant choreography from the legendary Mark Morris and featuring members of his renowned dance group.
