Beethoven’s sole opera, Fidelio, is a story of unwavering love and daring rescue. Disguised as a young man named Fidelio, Leonore infiltrates a prison to save her unjustly imprisoned husband, Florestan. The opera, filled with thrilling moments and soaring melodies, celebrates courage, marital devotion, and the ultimate triumph of justice over tyranny. The music of Fidelio is seen to represent social hierarchy; it is often said that there is a lot of political meaning within Fidelio. Its complex history and storyline underwent multiple revisions and titles, with Fidelio finally emerging as the definitive version.
Following a string of awe-inspiring Met performances, soprano Lise Davidsen stars as Leonore, who risks everything to save her husband from the clutches of tyranny. Tenor David Butt Philip is the political prisoner Florestan, sharing the stage with bass-baritone Tomasz Konieczny as the villainous Don Pizarro, veteran bass René Pape as the jailer Rocco, and soprano Ying Fang and tenor Magnus Dietrich, in his company debut, as the young Marzelline and Jaquino. Bass Stephen Milling sings the principled Don Fernando, and Susanna Mälkki conducts the Met’s striking production, which finds modern-day parallels in Beethoven’s stirring paean to freedom.
Estimated Run Time 2h 40m
