  • FY19 Annual Report View Report
    Annual Report 2018–19 3 Introduction 5 Metropolitan Opera Board of Directors 6 Season Repertory and Events 14 Artist Roster 16 The Financial Results 20 Our Patrons On the cover: Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes a bow after his first official performance as Jeanette Lerman-Neubauer Music Director PHOTO: JONATHAN TICHLER / MET OPERA 2 Introduction The 2018–19 season was a historic one for the Metropolitan Opera. Not only did the company present more than 200 exiting performances, but we also welcomed Yannick Nézet-Séguin as the Met’s new Jeanette Lerman- Neubauer Music Director. Maestro Nézet-Séguin is only the third conductor to hold the title of Music Director since the company’s founding in 1883. I am also happy to report that the 2018–19 season marked the fifth year running in which the company’s finances were balanced or very nearly so, as we recorded a very small deficit of less than 1% of expenses. The season opened with the premiere of a new staging of Saint-Saëns’s epic Samson et Dalila and also included three other new productions, as well as three exhilarating full cycles of Wagner’s Ring and a full slate of 18 revivals. The Live in HD series of cinema transmissions brought opera to audiences around the world for the 13th season, with ten broadcasts reaching more than two million people. Combined earned revenue for the Met (box office, media, and presentations) totaled $121 million. As in past seasons, total paid attendance for the season in the opera house was 75%. The new productions in the 2018–19 season were the work of three distinguished directors, two having had previous successes at the Met and one making his company debut.

  • Review 'Classical Style' at Ojai Music Festival Draws on Wit, Wisdom
    Review 'Classical Style' at Ojai Music Festival draws on wit, wisdom By Mark Swed June 17, 2014 OJAI — Charles Rosen's "The Classical Style" is an illuminating, academic, occasionally combative, close study of the musical style of Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven by a brilliant pianist and scholar who died in 2012. Though a technical tome, it takes on big, universal issues and proved a surprise hit of 1971, winning a National Book Award and reaching a remarkably wide audience. Rosen's 43-year-old book, never out of print, pulled a bigger surprise Friday as the subject for the first opera commissioned in the 68-year history of the Ojai Music Festival. The rules of musical form attempted a spectacularly absurd leap off the library shelf onto the lyric stage in the form of Steven Stucky's "The Classical Style: An Opera (of Sorts)." If this sounds like a somewhat ridiculous centerpiece for festival programming that revolved around issues of reinterpreting the Classical era (and will be reviewed further Tuesday), that of course was the point. The whole thing is so side-splitting that one rehearsal reportedly broke down when conductor Robert Spano had an uncontrollable laughing fit and had to be carried off the stage to recover. He was entitled. "The Classical Style" is a mash-up of Glenn Gould at his most satirical, PDQ Bach at his sauciest and a distractedly erudite Rosen cooking up a French sauce while pontificating on harmonic structure in his kitchen. But underlying the jokes (good ones and the groaners) and tomfoolery, Stucky's resourceful score and Denk's droll text produce an ingeniously eloquent musing on the meaning of life.

  • Edward Gardner Extends Contract with Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra Until 2023
    Edward Gardner extends contract with Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra until 2023 ‘The musical responses were virtuosic in terms of balance, precision and ensemble, so that the big set-pieces came across in all their rhythmic and harmonic glory,’ review of Bergen Philharmonic’s Peter Grimes at Edinburgh International Festival, Opera, October 2017 The Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra have announced that their relationship with Chief Conductor Edward Gardner is to continue until summer 2023, extending his current contract by two years. Since taking up the role of Chief Conductor in October 2015, Edward Gardner has continued developing the orchestra’s sound and international profile, with seven international tours to date which have included an acclaimed performance of Peter Grimes at the Edinburgh International Festival in 2017 and concerts at the BBC Proms and Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie in 2018. The partnership has also resulted in 10 acclaimed recordings, including Schönberg’s Gurrelieder, Bartók’s Bluebeard, three Janáček recordings including the Glagolitic Mass (Grammy nominated), Grieg’s Piano Concerto and Peer Gynt, and Berlioz’s monumental Grande Messe des Morts. The orchestra’s CEO Bernt E. Bauge commented on the extension: “I am thrilled that Edward Gardner will continue as Chief Conductor for the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra for another two-year period from 2021 to 2023. Edward has been a great success for us. As Chief Conductor he has to a remarkable extent developed the orchestra’s repertoire, artistic level and profile, which has opened up for increased listening experiences for a greater audience. The fact that his engagement now is extended until 2023 gives us security and great potential for further growth.
