Andrea Chénier

Umberto Giordano
December 13, 2025

This event occurred as part of the 25/26 Art On Screen season. This is an archived view.

Giordano's passionate tragedy stars tenor Piotr Beczala and soprano Sonya Yoncheva as lovers who fall victim to the intrigue and violence of the French Revolution.

Tenor Piotr Beczała portrays the title character, a virtuous poet who expresses his outrage at the corruption and inequality in the French government. Sonya Yoncheva dazzles as his aristocratic lover, Maddalena di Coigny, as their fates intertwine with the political turmoil of the French Revolution. Baritone Igor Golovatenko is the jealous Carlo Gérard, the agent of the Reign of Terror who seals their fates. Met Principal Guest Conductor Daniele Rustioni takes the podium to lead Nicolas Joël's gripping staging.
