September 5 Metropolitan Opera lecture
Giuseppe Verdi
Giuseppe Verdi

Victoria Bond lectures on "La Traviata" for The Metropolitan Opera at Lincoln Center on September 5 from 5:30 - 6:30 prior to the HD rebroadcast starring Natalie Dessays as the consumptive courtesan Violetta, perhaps opera’s most beloved heroine, in Willy Decker’s visionary production of Verdi’s tragedy. The cast, conducted by Fabio Luisi, also features Matthew Polenzani as Violetta’s lover, Alfredo, and Dmitri Hvorostovsky as his father, Giorgio Germont. (Original transmission: April 14, 2012).
