James Conlon conducts Giuseppe Filianoti as the lovestruck Nemorino, Georgian soprano Nino Machaidze in her first US appearance, Nathan Gunn as the handsome soldier Belcore and italian baritone Giorgio Caoduro in the comic role of Doctor Dulcamara.

Final scene of Bizet's Pearl Fishers.
The famous duet.
Nathan Gunn as Mercutio in Romeo et Juliette, singing Mab aria.
Romeo and his gang crash Juliette's birthday party.
Background: Zurga is the king/mayor/dude in charge. His old friend Nadir shows up. They reminisce about how they both loved this priestess but vowed to forget her. Turns out Nadir's been stalking her & she fell in love with him. Then that year's priestess arrives in town and guess what? It's her. Of course. Nadir, the sneak, goes to her and they give in to temptation. They're caught and sentenced to death. Zurga lost his temper when he found out about Nadir & Leila. There was a big storm. This aria is in his tent, later. He sings about how the storm is calm and now so is he. He agonizes that his pride condemns his best friend and the woman he loves to death. He resolves to let them go. Then of course, she shows up later & pisses him off again by going on about how much she loves Nadir (and hates Zurga). Fun stuff.
Nathan Gunn & Kelli O'Hara sing a duet.

After the award-winning recording of Brittens Turn of the Screw, released on Virgin Classics in 2002, Daniel Harding and Ian Bostridge meet again around Britten in his great masterpiece, Billy Budd. This new recording is a new asset to the label, which has planned a complete Britten opera cycle. The opera, in its definitive 2-act version, was recorded during 2 concert performances at the Barbican Hall on 7th & 9th December 2007. As principal guest conductor, Daniel Harding conducts the London Symphony Orchestra. The all-male cast boasts, along with Ian Bostridge as Captain Vere, American baritone Nathan Gunn in the role of Billy Budd, and Israeli bass-baritone, Gidon Saks, portraying the fiendish Claggart. EMI artist Jonathan Lemalu also contributes to the cast. Billy Budd is one of Brittens greatest masterpieces, containing three of his major operatic roles. Set amid the claustrophobia and cruelties of a battleship in Nelsons time, it shows the ruthless destruction of good-hearted able seaman Budd by sadistic master-at-arms Claggart, and the mental conflicts of intellectual but weak-willed Captain Vere, who is powerless to prevent it. The music is suitably gripping, by turns intense and exciting, and full of the insights and inspirations typical of its composer." www.barbican.org.uk
