Celebrated husband-and-wife pair tenor Roberto Alagna and soprano Aleksandra Kurzak joined the Met Stars Live in Concert series in August 2020, performing from a stunning outdoor terrace in Èze, France. Against a sunset backdrop overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, the dynamic duo sang a program of favorite arias and duets, including selections from Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, Donizetti’s L’Elisir d’Amore, Verdi’s Otello, and Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana—as well as some popular songs like the Neapolitan classic “Funiculì, Funiculà.” Accompanied by members of the Morphing Chamber Orchestra, Alagna and Kurzak gave thousands of opera lovers around the world a much-needed escape from the ongoing health crisis.
