- Summary:
- Celebrated husband-and-wife pair tenor Roberto Alagna and soprano Aleksandra Kurzak joined the Met Stars Live in Concert series in August 2020, performing from a stunning outdoor terrace in Èze, France. Against a sunset backdrop overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, the dynamic duo sang a program of favorite arias and duets, including selections from Puccini's Madama Butterfly, Donizetti's L'Elisir d'Amore, Verdi's Otello, and Mascagni's Cavalleria Rusticana--as well as some popular songs like the Neapolitan classic "Funiculì, Funiculà." Accompanied by members of the Morphing Chamber Orchestra, Alagna and Kurzak gave thousands of opera lovers around the world a much-needed escape from the ongoing health crisis.
