Werther

Two of opera’s greatest artists—Jonas Kaufmann and Elīna Garanča—appear
together for the first time at the Met in Massenet’s sublime adaptation
of Goethe’s revolutionary and tragic romance. It is directed and
designed by Richard Eyre and Rob Howell, the same team that created the
Met’s recent hit production of Carmen. Rising young maestro Alain Altinoglu conducts.
