Jean-Pierre Ponnelle‘s production of Mozart’s great Trojan War opera returns to the Met, where it’s conducted by Music Director James Levine.

The ensemble cast includes Matthew Polenzani as the king torn by a rash vow and mezzo-soprano Alice Coote in what opera types refer to as the ‘trouser role’ of his noble son Idamante.
