Great Performances at the Met

Les Contes D'Hoffman

Offenbach's fictionalized take on the life and loves of the German Romantic writer E.T.A. Hoffmann is a fascinating psychological journey. Met Music Director James Levine conducts Joseph Calleja in the tour-de-force title role. Anna Netrebko is the tragic Antonia and Alan Held sings the demonic four villains. Tony Award winner Bartlett Sher (Lincoln Center Theater's South Pacific) directs.
