Summary:

On May 7, 2017, the Met celebrated its golden anniversary in Lincoln Center with a spectacular gala featuring many of the greatest artists in opera. From soprano Renée Fleming's ravishing "Porgi, Amor" to the brilliant high Cs of tenor Javier Camarena's "Ah! Mes amis ... Pour mon âme!," soprano Anna Netrebko's show-stopping "Un bel dì" to the late baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky's heroic surprise appearance singing "Cortigiani, vil razza dannata," the evening was a magnificent tribute to decades of unforgettable Met history
