Review: With ‘Fidelio,’ the Met Opera Does What It Does Best
The Met, a magnet for star singers, flexed its muscles to stack the cast of Beethoven’s only opera, with Lise Davidsen in the title role.
This “Fidelio” isn’t just excellently sung, including by the Met’s sensitive chorus: Jürgen Flimm’s fresh-as-ever staging from 2000 is also led with clarity, drive and insight by the conductor Susanna Mälkki. It’s just a pity that the revival is so brief, with only four more performances through March 15.

Joana Mallwitz makes a radiant Met debut leading a vigorous Figaro revival
Rob Howell’s period costumes – graceful gowns and stylishly tailored suits for the upper classes, playful uniforms for the household staff – look as attractive as ever. Paule Constable’s imaginative lighting designs provide stunningly dramatic effects at key moments.
On the opening night of this run the German conductor Joana Mallwitz, making her house debut, drew a radiant, highly transparent reading from the magnificent Met orchestra, with richly textured sounds from the strings, played with graceful portamento, and polished tone from the woodwinds and brass. Together with the splendid soloists and chorus, the ensemble created a lively, totally engaging performance.
