Florencia en el Amazonas Will Be the First Spanish-Language Opera at the Met in a Century

Playbill: In the early 1900s, a riverboat winds its way along the Amazon River, headed to Manaus, site of the legendary opera house in the jungle heart of Brazil. On board is a great diva, Florencia Grimaldi, ostensibly traveling (incognito) to an engagement at the theatre—but really in desperate search of her long-lost lover Cristóbal, a butterfly hunter who has disappeared in the rainforest.
