I went to this performance. Great night at the Met. Asmik Grigorian and Jonathan Tetelman (he's a lot taller and handsomer than I expected) were wonderful. Anthony Minghella's production still holds up after all these years. The puppet of "Dolore" is still heartbreaking holding the little American flag.
I, too, was there (came up from DC) when it was being shown to people at the theaters .Cannot even find the words . I was blown away and didn’t stop crying until halfway to my hotel !
I enjoyed this on HD at the Theater in Stroudsburg ,Pa. I'm an amateur enthusiast so my negative comments are few. This was good theater for our modern time . I'd see it again.
The Observer wrote: "After his first Met Pinkerton, a grinning Tetelman ignored the plan and swiftly strode to the footlights well ahead of the rest of the cast, constructively making it all about him. He even outdid fellow shameless tenor showboat vittorio grigolo by eagerly gesturing to the audience to award him more applause."
I sometimes identify with Cio Cio San but would not go to the same extreme. Mr. Pinkerton, not my favorite.🥲. Un Bel Di, what a piece Puccini left us! Powerful, beautiful in its dramatic sadness.
Although Tetelman's voice is great, his behaviour at this curtain call is typical psychopath as he is described by many. He does just show off himself, all about himself. Sickening
Asmik genial…se confirma es la cantante-actriz de nuestros días…gran perfomance ❤❤❤❤❤

Հազար ափսոս, որ չտեսավ այս օրը, աշխարհի լավագույն տենորներից մեկը՝ Գեղամ Գրիգորյանը՝ հոյակապ Հասմիկ Գրիգորյանի հայրը․․․
I am sure that his soul was present to see his beloved daughter!
