The Metropolitan Opera

This Saturday two singers at the height of their powers—radiant soprano Nadine Sierra and tenor sensation Benjamin Bernheim—come together as the star-crossed lovers in Charles Gounod’s sumptuous adaptation of Roméo et Juliette. Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin will be on the podium with a cast that features baritone Will Liverman and tenor Frederick Ballentine as the archrivals Mercutio and Tybalt, mezzo-soprano Samantha Hankey as the mischievous pageboy Stéphano, and bass-baritone Alfred Walker as Frère Laurent.

Opera broadcasts begin at 1 p.m. on Blue Lake Public Radio. Click here for details about the 2023-24 Robert K. Johnson Foundation-Metropolitan Opera International Radio Network schedule.
