May 6 – 16, 2026
We are pleased to welcome back the Albanian soprano Ermonela Jaho in La Traviata at the Metropolitan Opera. The incomparable soprano returns in her signature role as Violetta Valéry in Verdi’s enduring tragedy, taking center stage across four performances in May.
Renowned for her emotional depth and “fragile and fiery” intensity, Ermonela Jaho’s interpretation of the ill-fated Parisian courtesan has become a touchstone of contemporary opera. Set within Tony Award–winning director Michael Mayer’s dreamlike production, these four performances offer a rare opportunity to experience a defining role on one of opera’s most prestigious stages.
