What it’s about. Tchaikovsky’s many moods—tender, grand, melancholy—are all given free rein in Eugene Onegin. The opera is based on Pushkin’s iconic verse novel, which reimagines the Byronic romantic anti-hero as the definitive bored Russian aristocrat caught between convention and ennui; Tchaikovsky, similarly, took Western European operatic forms and transformed them into an authentic and undeniably Russian work. At the core of the opera is the young girl Tatiana, who grows from a sentimental adolescent into a complete woman in one of the operatic stage’s most convincing character developments.

Who’s in it. The Metropolitan Opera: Eugene Onegin stars Timur Zangiev as Conductor, Asmik Grigorian as Tatiana, Maria Barakova as Olga and Larissa Diadkova as Filippyevna, among others.
