Samson et Dalila - Saint-Saens (MET 2026/27) (2026)

Samson et Dalila is one of the five most important works in French opera literature. “Mon coeur s’ouvre à ta voix” is one of the most beautiful mezzo arias ever composed, and it glosses over what a devilish woman this biblical figure Dalila is. Treacherously, she wrests Samson’s secret from him and brings about his downfall. Her appearance: Aigul Akhmetshina!
