Met Opera Live: Wagner’s Tannhäuser

Live: October 31, 2015, 4.00 Encore: November 4, 2015, 12.00

James Levine conducts Wagner’s early masterpiece in its first return to the Met stage in more than a decade.

Today’s leading Wagnerian tenor Johan Botha takes on the daunting title role, opposite soprano Eva-Maria

Westbroek as Elisabeth, adding another Wagner heroine to her Met repertoire after her acclaimed Sieglinde in the

Ring a few seasons ago. On the heels of his recent triumph in Parsifal, baritone Peter Mattei sings Wolfram, and

mezzo-soprano Michelle DeYoung is the love goddess, Venus.
