Synopsis: Soprano Angel Blue makes her long-awaited Met role debut as the title Ethiopian princess, one of opera’s defining roles. Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium for the New Year’s Eve premiere of Michael Mayer’s grand new staging, which brings ancient 8 Egypt to life with intricate projections and dazzling animations. Mezzo-soprano Judit Kutasi, following her 2024 debut in La Forza del Destino, is Aida’s Egyptian rival Amneris, sharing the role with Elīna Garanča, who returns to the Met for the first time since 2020. Leading tenors Piotr Beczałan and Brian Jagde alternate as the soldier Radamès, who complete the greatest love triangle in the repertory. The all-star cast also features baritones Quinn Kelsey and Amartuvshin Enkhbat and bass-baritone Eric Owens as Amonasro and basses Dmitry Belosselskiy, Alexander Vinogradov, and Morris Robinson as Ramfis. Christina Nilsson makes her Met debut in the title role in March, and Alexander Soddy shares conducting duties. Maestro John Keenan conducts the final performance in spring.
