Supermodel Helena Christensen, actresses Helen Mirren, Jessica Chastain, Brooke Shields and other celebrities came to enjoy the first opera of the new season.

Christensen captivated fashion critics with a sophisticated dark purple suit with gold trim in the best traditions of theatrical costumes. Shields opted for a spectacular scarlet lace dress, with 70-year-old Mirren being the most original. The actress chose a wonderful dress with a print "children's watercolors" and looked youthful and even perky.

Now opera lovers are eagerly awaiting the premiere of Verdi's opera Troubadour, in which Anna Netrebko and Dmitry Hvorostovsky will perform the lead roles. As you know, the Russian baritone recently completed a course of chemotherapy and returned to the stage. The public will be able to see Hvorostovsky in the role of Count di Luna on September 25.

The new season of the Metropolitan Opera was opened by Giuseppe Verdi's tragedy Othello, starring the soloist of the Mariinsky Theater, tenor Alexander Antonenko. As specified, Antonenko, who previously performed the part of Othello in the Rome and Vienna Operas, appeared on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera for the first time in this character, while his debut in New York took place in 2009. The role of Desdemona was also performed for the first time on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera by the Bulgarian singer Sonya Yoncheva.
