A work of the Great Russian Romantic-Era Composer Pytotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky, Eugene Onegin is a tale of burning passions, love unreturned and regret. Perhaps one of the best examples of the Lyric Opera style that places emphasis on melody with a fantasy or romance theme, the opera showcases Tchaikovsky's soaring melodic brilliance and virtuosic orchestration. Back as part of the Met's 2025/26 season, enjoy Tony winner Diane Warren's production, starring Asmik Grigorian Tatiana and Igor Golovatenko as Onegin.

Grammy Award-winning composer Kaija Saariaho's work, Innocence, is coming to New York for its Met premiere in 2026.

Fellow Finn Susanna Malkki will be conducting a host of international actors and singers, who will perform the work in multiple languages. An ambitious and dramatic masterpiece that can't be missed!

A tale as old as time, (or at least one thousand years), Tristan and Isolde has long been considered the ultimate tale of passionate, romantic love in forbidden circumstances. With universal themes of all-consuming love and bitter-sweet tragedy, it fits perfectly into Wagner's repertoire of epics. Presented this season in a new staging from Yuval Sharon (making his Met debut), enjoy the story for the first time or return again to see this epic romance play out, starring Michael Spyres and Lise Davison as the titular lovers.

History, heroism and imagination come together in The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, a new adaptation of Michael Chabon's Pulitzer Prizewinning novel of the same name. Brought to the stage by director Bartlett Sher, the cast includes Andrzej Filonczyk making his debut at the Met in the role of Joe Kavalier, alongside Miles Mykkanen as Sam Clay, while composer Mason Bates crafts a boundary-pushing score blending electronic textures with sweeping orchestral themes.

Bellini's final work, a rousing bel canto set during the tumult of the English Civil War concerns a secret love that goes against the social and political divide that drives one of the lovers to the very edge of madness. Returning for the 2025/26 season in this production from director Charles Edwards, who presents the first new staging from the Met in nearly half a century!
