Thanks to HD transmissions, opera-goers no longer have take out mortgages or travel far to attend the Met. The first Live in HD screening of the company's 125th season is its Opening Night Gala, screened at BAM Cinema. The red-carpet arrivals are half the fun, and most glamorous of all is the Gala's star, Renée Fleming. The superstar soprano wears pièce d'occasion designer gowns for each of the evening's performances: La Traviata (Act II), Manon (Act III), and Capriccio's final scene. After this swanky kickoff, enjoy later broadcasts throughout the season of Strauss' Salome, Berlioz's Le Damnation of Faust, and many others.
