Pene Pati and Meridian Prall
Pene Pati takes a Free Throw on Rodolfo, the role which marks the tenor’s debut at Lyric Opera of Chicago. As Rodolfo and Mimì are top two on the call sheet for La bohème, we’ll handicap some of the commercial recordings of Puccini’s perennial people pleasing masterpiece. Then, Meridian Prall goes Inside the Huddle. A 2025 OBS “Artist to Watch,” we check-in with the American mezzo-soprano in advance of her debut in Washington Concert Opera’s La clemenza di Tito.
In the Two-Minute Drill, the Met, LA Opera, and Welsh National Opera announce their upcoming seasons, the Kennedy Center is an ongoing concern, and we bid farewell to Edith Mathis. Plus a Good Call for Heartbeat Opera’s upcoming Vanessa.
