On November 22, Strauss's elegant romance brings the glamour and magic of 19th-century Vienna to cinemas around the world – in a magnificent production by legendary director Otto Schenk, described as “as beautiful as one could wish for” (The New York Times). Soprano Rachel Willis-Sørensen stars as the title heroine, a young aristocrat in search of love on her own terms. The radiant soprano Louise Alder plays her sister Zdenka, and bass-baritone Tomasz Konieczny is the dashing count who sweeps Arabella off her feet. This live cinema broadcast is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series, bringing operas to cinemas worldwide.
