Back by popular demand!
The Met: Live in HD is expanding the appeal and reach of opera around the world and has been met with both critical and popular acclaim. Of the inaugural transmission in December 2006, the Los Angeles Times proclaimed, “The Met’s experiment of merging film with live performance has created a new art form.” Using robotic cameras and state-of-the-art technology, The Met: Live in HD captures the onstage action from striking angles and heightens attention to the narrative elements of both performance and production. Behind-the-scenes features, live interviews with cast and crew, insightful short documentaries, and bird’s-eye views of the productions offer an unprecedented look at what goes into the staging of an opera.
