Aida is among Verdi’s most emblematic operas—unquestionably one of the most beloved of the entire repertoire. This monument combines ill-fated love and political intrigue with the allure of ancient Egypt. Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts a world-class vocal cast in this opulent conclusion to the Festival’s 47th edition, a few months before opening a new production of Aida at the Metropolitan Opera.
