Two of the most thrilling figures in opera today – the Norwegian wonder-soprano now ripe for Isolde and the American (bari)tenor known for boldly navigating styles and voice types – go under the lights in Yuval Sharon’s visionary staging. Surrounding them are familiar names like Tomasz Konieczny, beloved guest of the Budapest Wagner Days, and mezzo-soprano Ekaterina Gubanova, memorable for her successes in MET HD broadcasts since their inception.
