Two of opera’s most extraordinary artists collide in Verdi’s thrilling take on Shakespeare’s immortal tragedy.

Quinn Kelsey stars as the haunted Scottish king, following a string of triumphs in Verdi’s signature baritone roles. Opposite him is Lise Davidsen—the world’s reigning dramatic soprano—as the power-mad Lady Macbeth, whose ruinous ambition damns them both.

Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts this penetrating new production by Louisa Proske, the brilliant young director making waves worldwide. Tenor Freddie De Tommaso stars as the heroic Macduff, alongside bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green as Macbeth’s doomed ally, Banquo.
