Ancient Babylon comes to life in a classic Met staging of biblical proportions. Baritone George Gagnidze stars as the imperious king Nabucco, alongside soprano Liudmyla Monastyrska, reprising her thrilling turn as his vengeful daughter Abigaille. Mezzo-soprano Maria Barakova and tenor SeokJong Baek are Fenena and Ismaele, whose love transcends politics, and bass Dmitry Belosselskiy repeats his celebrated portrayal of the high priest Zaccaria. Daniele Callegari conducts Verdi's exhilarating early masterpiece, which features the ultimate showcase for the great Met Chorus, the moving "Va, pensiero." This live transmission is part of the Met's award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.

Run time: approximately 3 hours and 5 minutes with one 30 minute intermission to include exclusive behind the-scenes content and cast interviews led by host Angel Blue.
