Rossini's classic take on the "Cinderella" story is a comic opera full of thrilling arias, beautiful melodies and lots of laughs. The Metropolitan's charming production was revived in 2009 for star mezzo, Elı¯na Garancˇa. The mezzo triumphs in the role and dispatches vocal fireworks throughout. She is joined by American tenor Lawrence Brownlee and a cast of bel canto singers. BONUS FEATURE: Interviews by Thomas Hampson
