I love the met with a capital L but a cannot understand why in gods name they would do another live in HD telecast of Eugene Onegin with Netrebko. I love Netrebko and obviously the met does to but they should be using her for bigger better things. I mean why would they wast another HD telecast on a sub par production and use Netrebko in role she has obviosly left behind as her voice is no longer viable for light roles like that of tatyana. I also do not understand why the met would do a HD telecast of Ideomeno wich is far oudated and also give four operas to James Levine a ONCE great conductor who is far past his prime. If the met is to survive in the twenty first centry they must make opera acsecable and entertaining for all. Peter Gelb has done a wonderful job of bringing a new era to the met. A far contast to the tired old volpe regime but he must cut the last ties if the met is going to prosper
