The Met: Live in HD, the company’s highly successful, award-winning series of live Saturday performance transmissions into movie theaters in more than 35 countries around the world, has sold more than 1.1 million tickets so far this season. 

The 2009-10 HD series will feature nine transmissions, beginning October 10 with Toscaand continuing with Aida (October 24), Turandot (November 7), Les Contes d’Hoffmann(December 19), Der Rosenkavalier (January 9), Carmen (January 16), Simon Boccanegra(February 6), Hamlet (March 27), and Armida (May 1). In January 2009, the Met won a special Emmy Award for “advancing technology through ongoing, live, global transmission of high-definition programming to movie theaters.” (Details on the 2009-10 HD presentations and other Met media initiatives follow later in this release.)

Tosca tells the story of three people—a famous opera singer, a free-thinking painter, and a sadistic chief of police—caught in a net of love and politics. Soprano Karita Mattila, recently seen in last season’s Live in HD presentation of Salome, sings the title role for the first time outside her native Finland. Luc Bondy, acclaimed for his imaginative theater and opera productions, directs. The cast also includes Marcelo Álvarez as Cavaradossi and George Gagnidze as Scarpia. Joseph Colaneri conducts.

Conductor: Joseph Colaneri; Production: Luc Bondy; Karita Mattila, Marcelo Álvarez, George Gagnidze, Paul Plishka
