DESCRIPTION:Apr 20 - May 16\, 2026\nEver since she broke out in Salome at t
 he Salzburg Festival in 2018\, the soprano Asmik Grigorian has been notchi
 ng premiere after gala premiere in a galaxy of roles canonical and obscure
  that make the head spin. But only in Europe (this summer\, she’s the Sa
 lzburg Festival’s new Carmen). Whatever Grigorian does\, it’s an event
 . So far\, she has favored American audiences with a Metropolitan Opera re
 vival of Puccini’s Madama Butterfly in 2024 (five shows)\, plus a handfu
 l of concert dates. For next season\, the company has announced a new prod
 uction of Jenůfa for her\, directed by Claus Guth\, back for an encore af
 ter his recent hit debut with Salome. Meanwhile\, there’s her Tatiana in
  the Met’s Eugene Onegin to look forward to\, Like her Met Butterfly\, i
 t will go out live in HD to movie houses around the world (May 2). No\, hy
 pe is not a factor. Grigorian is the rare interpreter who is as revelatory
  in standard repertory as in works you’ve never heard of before\; she’
 s not a diva but an original. As often as you’ve seen Tatiana’s journe
 y from impulsive letter-writing to hard-won restraint\, Grigorian’s trav
 ersal may touch you in ways you can’t anticipate. The baritone Igor Golo
 vatenko is Onegin\, the dandy whose sophistication is skin-deep. Stanislas
  de Barbeyrac\, back at the Met for the first time since his debut in Don 
 Giovanni nearly a decade ago\, catches Onegin’s bullet in one of the sad
 dest duels in all opera\, but not before bringing the action to a halt in 
 one of the most poignant soliloquies it’s given to tenors to sing. Bring
  a hanky. Here’s a tenor who tugs the heartstrings without even trying. 
 The talented Muscovite Timur Zangiev conducts in his house debut.
