Verdi's Don Carlo at Symphony Hall


The Met: HD Live presents Verdi's ''Don Carlo''
Director Nicholas Hytner makes his Met debut with this new production of Verdi's profound, beautiful and most ambitious opera.  Roberto Alagna leads the cast, and Ferruccio Furlantetto, Marina Poplavskaya, Anna Smirnova, and Simon Keenlyside also star.  Yannick Nezet-Segyubm back after triumphant debut leading "Carmen", conducts.  "I think "Don Carlo" is the quintessential Verdi opera," Hytner says.  "Right through this opera there is, on the one hand, an implacble expression of impending doom and, on the other hand, a succession of the most gloriously open-throated arias, the most fantastically determined music."
