Summary:
Any new Met production of Verdi's beloved tragedy La Traviata would be noteworthy, but Michael Mayer's dazzling staging, which premiered during the 2018-19 season, was doubly significant as it marked Yannick Nézet-Séguin's first performances as the Met's Jeanette Lerman-Neubauer Music Director. On the podium for this Live in HD transmission, Nézet-Séguin leads a starry ensemble. As Violetta, the consumptive heroine fighting to find true happiness, soprano Diana Damrau delivers yet another compelling portrayal on the Met stage. Tenor Juan Diego Flórez sings his first Verdi role with the company, as Violetta's ardent yet impetuous lover, Alfredo, and baritone Quinn Kelsey rounds out the principal cast as Giorgio Germont, Alfredo's implacable father.

Opening credits
Introduction by host Anita Rashvelishvili
Preludio
Dell'invito trascorsa è già l'ora ...
Libiamo, libiamo ne' lieti calici (Brindisi)
Che è ciò?
Un dì felice, eterea
Ebben? Che diavol fate?
Si ridesta in ciel l'aurora
È strano! ... Ah, fors'è lui che l'anima
Follie! follie! ... Sempre libera
Introduction to Act II by Anita Rashvelishvili
Lunge da lei ... De' miei bollenti spiriti
Annina, donde vieni? ... Oh mio rimorso!
Alfredo? Per Parigi on partiva
Pura siccome un angelo
Non sapete quale affetto
Un dì, quando le veneri
Ah! Dite alla giovine
Imponete
Dammi tu forza, o cielo
Ah, vive sol quel core
Di Provenza il mar, il suol
Nè rispondi d'un padre all'affetto?
Avrem lieta di maschere la notte
Noi siamo Zingarelle
Di Madride noi siam mattadori
Alfredo! Voi!
Invitato a qui seguirmi
Ogni suo aver tal femmina
Di sprezzo degno se stesso rende
Alfredo, Alfredo, di questo core
Introduction to Act III by Anita Rashvelishvili
Annina?
Teneste la promessa ... Addio del passato
Largo al quadrupede
Signora
Parigi, o cara
Ah non più ... Ah! gran Dio! Morir sì giovine
Ah, Violetta?
Prendi, quest'è l'immagine
