- Join opera diva Rene Fleming as she hosts a special countdown of Great Moments at the Met: Viewer's Chocie, where it was the viewers who called the tunes. To mark the 30th anniversary of the Metropolitan Opera's first PBS telecast, Great Performances at the MET offered viewers the chance to cast their votes for their favorite televised Met opera moments. Through online voting, public television viewers selected 15 unforgettable scenes from the Met's extraordinary archive. This dazzling retrospective spans 30 years of show-stopping performances by Met opera legends. Will the number one vote-winner be Luciano Pavarotti performing in "La Bohme" in the inaugural Live From the Met broadcast in 1977? Leontyne Price taking the stage in her farewell performance of "Aida"? Or will the viewers' favorite be yet another magnificent performance by opera icons like Plcido Domingo, Beverly Sills, Joan Sutherland, Birgit Nilsson, Jos Carreras, and Kiri Te Kanawa? Tune in to these classic performances along with more thrilling moments from contemporary stars including Rene Fleming, Anna Netrebko, and Dmitri Hvorostovsky.
