The Metropolitan Opera 2011, 197 min. Directed by Stephen Wadsworth. Starring: Renée Fleming, Andreas Scholl, Stephanie Blythe. In Italian. Renée Fleming stars in the title role of one of Handel’s greatest dramas, seen in Stephen Wadsworth’s 2004 Met premiere production. Rodelinda is faced with an impossible dilemma: With her husband Bertarido believed dead, she either has to marry the despised Grimoaldo (the elegant Joseph Kaiser), who has usurped her husband’s throne, or see him murder her son. But Bertarido (leading countertenor Andreas Scholl) is alive and eventually reclaims both throne and wife—and makes peace with his enemies. Stephanie Blythe is marvelous as Eduige, Bertarido’s sister, who is betrothed to Grimoaldo but turns against him. Baroque authority Harry Bicket conducts. Watch online here.

The Metropolitan Opera 2011, 180 min. Directed by Phelim McDermott. Starring: Richard Croft Richard Croft, Maria Zifchak, Alfred Walker. In Sanskrit. The grandeur of myth, the transformation of a single man into a movement, and music that can change the very way we hear - these are the elements of Satyagraha, Philip Glass’s epic meditation on the legacy of Mohandas K. Gandhi. Over the course of the events depicted in Glass’s opera, Gandhi develops his philosophy of satyagraha, a Sanskrit term that loosely translates as “truth force” - the conviction that love, not violence, is the strongest means of fighting oppression.
