Tony Award–winning composer Jeanine Tesori’s powerful new MET Opera Live: Grounded, wrestles with often-overlooked issues created by 21st-century war-making.
The opera focusses on the ethical conflicts created by the use of modern military technology. It also explores the psychological and emotional toll supposedly safe remote technology takes on our service people.
Canadian mezzo soprano Emily D’Angelo stars as the hot-shot fighter pilot whose unplanned pregnancy takes her out of the cockpit and lands her in Las Vegas, operating a Reaper drone halfway around the world.
American tenor Ben Bliss costars as the Wyoming rancher Eric in a production by Michael Mayer that brings this story to life in a high-tech staging which presents a variety of perspectives on the action.
Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium to conduct Tesori’s kaleidoscopic MET Opera Live: Grounded.
