James Levine conducts Richard Wagner’s Tannhäuser with Johan Botha on Great Performances at the Met. Eva-Maria Westbroek, Michelle DeYoung, Peter Mattei, and Gunther Groissbock also star in Otto Schenk’s classic production. Wagner’s early masterpiece Tannhäuser comes to Great Performances at the Met for the first time. It is the production’s first Met revival in more than a decade. Johan Botha makes his Met role debut in the titular role; Eva-Maria Westbroek is Elisabeth, adding another Wagner heroine to her Met repertoire after her acclaimed Sieglinde in Die Walküre; Michelle DeYoung is the love goddess Venus, which she sang in the opera’s previous revival; Peter Mattei is Wolfram; and Günther Groissböck is the Landgraf.
