L'Elisir d'Amore

One of the most popular of all operatic comedies, Donizetti’s L’Elisir d’Amore never fails to bring a smile to audiences’ faces—while also warming their hearts with its endearing love story. In this live radio broadcast, a pair of stunning bel canto singers, soprano Golda Schultz and tenor Javier Camarena, star as the lovers Adina and Nemorino, headlining a cast that also features baritone Davide Luciano as the swaggering Sgt. Belcore and baritone Ambrogio Maestri reprising his celebrated portrayal as the wily huckster Dr. Dulcamara. In his Met debut season, Maestro Michele Gamaba conducts Donizetti’s exuberant score, which is as intoxicating as its titular elixir of love.
