Karel Mark Chichon leads the Metropolitan Opera cast in one of Verdi’s most enduringly popular operas and brings fresh insights to this beloved score. Aleksandra Kurzak is poignant and touching as Violetta, the consumptive courtesan who finds true love with Alfredo, sung with style and passion by Dmytro Popov. Quinn Kelsey is Germont, Alfredo’s father, who forces the two apart, setting in motion events that lead to a shattering and tragic conclusion
