Best of the Met Encore Presentation: Eugene Onegin
Tuesday, July 7, 7:00pm. Tickets $18 Tchaikovsky’s sweeping depiction of impossible love is set amid all the pathos and pageantry of Imperial Russia. Dance music for every kind of character, from peasants to nobility, is contrasted with moving solos such as the soprano’s great letter scene and the tenor’s heartbreaking farewell to life. An engrossing and insightful drama, Eugene Onegin uses a lushly romantic score to present adult relationships in all their complexity.
