This is a beautifully photographed interpretation of the Bartók opera and thanks to the vision of Michael Powell and designer Hein Heckroth, it's a good one. It's all sang by Norman Foster ("Bluebeard") and Ana Raquel Satre - his latest (4th) wife "Judith" and set in his castle that were it not for the colour, would not have looked out of place in a Von Sternberg film. The couple are getting to know each other, and rather unwittingly "Judith" is interrogating her new husband about his life and what lies behind the seven doors of his home. As she progresses, she discovers his torture chamber, his treasury and despite his warnings that she is unlikely to like what she sees, she perseveres through the others before... It's sung entirely in German and the version I saw had only the most sparing of sur-titles to guide us through but the imagery and the performances - especially from the mesmerising Satre - tell us all we need to know about her, her new husband and her not too bright future. There's a lovely chemistry between the two. The Duke has an almost intimidatory character to him, but Foster plays that subtly and we can believe that possibly, just possibly, he might actually love the curious "Judith". The photography captures the intimacy and despair of these two really effectively, with the targeted use of light and shade and the gothic-style set design adding hugely to the allure of this hour-long story.
The gorgeous and evocative Otto Schenk/Günther Schneider-Siemssen production continues with this second opera in Wagner’s Ring cycle. Hildegard Behrens brings deep empathy to Brünnhilde, the favorite daughter of the god Wotan (James Morris) who nevertheless defies him. Morris’s portrayal of Wotan is deservedly legendary, as is Christa Ludwig, as Fricka. Jessye Norman and Gary Lakes are Sieglinde and Siegmund, and Kurt Moll is the threatening Hunding. James Levine and the Met orchestra provide astonishing color and drama. (Performed April 8, 1989)
This film traces the life of Jan Kapr, a prominent Czech composer of the 20th century. A documentary opera with an ambitious libretto and playful and refined editing work, Kapr Code is an unexpected celebration of creativity that shakes up our ideas of biography and pays tribute to the importance of resisting homologation and censorship through art and creation.

Visionary artist Matthew Barney returns to cinema with this 3-part epic, a radical reinvention of Norman Mailer’s novel Ancient Evenings. In collaboration with composer Jonathan Bepler, Barney combines traditional modes of narrative cinema with filmed elements of performance, sculpture, and opera, reconstructing Mailer’s hypersexual story of Egyptian gods and the seven stages of reincarnation, alongside the rise and fall of the American car industry.

Who loves whom in Così fan tutte, Mozart’s and Da Ponte’s cruelly comic reflection on desire, fidelity and betrayal? Or have the confusions to which the main characters subject one another ensured that in spite of the heartfelt love duets and superficially fleetfooted comedy nothing will work any longer and that a sense of emotional erosion has replaced true feelings? Così fan tutte is a timeless work full of questions that affect us all. The Academy Award-winning director Michael Haneke once said that he was merely being precise and did not want to distort reality. In only his second opera production after Don Giovanni in 2006, he presents what ARTE described as a “disillusioned vision of love in an ice-cold, realistic interpretation”.
Extraordinary soprano Lise Davidsen stars as the volatile diva Floria Tosca for the first time at the Met.

Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts the electrifying score, which features some of Puccini’s most memorable melodies. This live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.
