Now in its eleventh season, The Met: Live in HD is the Metropolitan Opera's Peabody and Emmy Award-winning series of live performances transmitted to more than 2,000 movie theaters in seventy countries around the world. Live telecasts feature the full performance along with backstage interviews and commentary.

The Clark presents eight live transmissions and four encores in our newly renovated,
state-of-the-art auditorium, beginning November 19, 2016 and continuing through May 13, 2017.

Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho's breakthrough opera, L'Amour de Loin, was described by The New York Times as "transfixing...a lushly beautiful score." Commissioned by the Salzburg Festival, where it was first seen in 2000, it will now finally have its Metropolitan Opera premiere in a dazzling new production by Robert Lepage, featuring glimmering ribbons of LED lights that extend across the length of the stage and over the orchestra pit. Eric Owens is the knight on a quest of love and Susanna Phillips is his lover on the other side of the sea. Conductor Susanna Mälkki makes her Met debut.
