A thrilling drama of passion, power, and honor

Four extraordinary singers star in an early Verdi gem as Great Performances at the Met presents Ernani on Sunday, July 29, at 1:30 p.m. (CT).

Based on Victor Hugo’s revolutionary play, Ernani follows the fates of three men—two noble and one a bandit—who attempt to outmaneuver one another for the hand of the beautiful Elvira. Pier Luigi Samaratini’s colorful production is conducted by Marco Armiliato and features Marcello Giordani in the title role. Angela Meade takes center stage as Elvira, with Dmitri Hvorostovsky and Ferruccio Furlanetto rounding out the cast.
