The Met: Live in HD supported financially by the Foundation of the Arts and Music in Asia, a Hong Kong-registered charity.
The soprano shines in a masterly New York staging of Verdi’s opera of love and revenge.
This score, with its insistent, obsessive rhythmic motif and countervailing love melody, fits Nézet-Séguin’s dramatic sense, and the orchestral playing is as thrilling as the singing. Paced perfectly, this four-hour performance feels half that, yet has the patience to allow Davidsen and others to soar.

Each piece turns over large swaths of music and its most dramatic moments to the chorus. And the Met’s delivered: Singing with strength and clarity, the ensemble filled the company’s imposing hall without sacrificing the smooth texture and depth of its sound. It was all a reminder of what Donald Palumbo, the chorus master since 2006, has accomplished with these singers, and of the standard he will leave behind when he steps down at the end of the season.
