Tchaikovsky: Eugene Onegin – with Renée Fleming & Dmitri Hvorostovsky

The pain of unrequited love is brought vividly to life in this unforgettable performance of Tchaikovsky’s Eugene Onegin. Soprano Renée Fleming is musically and dramatically radiant as the shy Tatiana, who falls in love with the worldly Onegin, played with devastating charisma by baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky. Their mesmerizing vocalism and chemistry explode in one of opera’s most heartbreaking final scenes. With Valery Gergiev on the podium conducting Tchaikovsky’s passionate score, this performance is one for the ages. (© The Metropolitan Opera)
