Summary note
Director Nicholas Hytner, who made his Met debut with this production, brings out all the passionate intensity that is at the heart of Verdi's monumental drama. Don Carlo (Roberto Alagna), the Spanish crown prince, and Elizabeth of Valois (Marina Poplavskaya), daughter of the King of France, fall in love, only to be torn apart by international politics when Carlo's father, King Philip II (Ferruccio Furlanetto), decides to marry Elizabeth himself. Carlo's friend, Rodrigo (Simon Keenlyside), plays a dangerous game, balancing his political aims with the trust of his monarch. And when the beautiful Princess Eboli (Anna Smirnova) discovers her love for Don Carlo is not returned, her revenge terribly backfires. Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts the Met orchestra and chorus.

Opening credits and introduction
Introduction
Fontainebleau! foresta immensa e solitaria!
Il suon del corno alfin nel bosco tace
Al mio piè, perché?
Di qual amor, di quant'ardor
Al fedel ch'ora viene
Inni di festa lieti echeggiate
Vi benedica Iddio dal ciel!
Carlo, il sommo Imperatore
Al chiostro di San Giusto
È lui! Desso! L'Infante!
Dio, che nell'alma infondere
Sotto ai folti, immensi abeti
Nel giardin del bello
La Regina!
Carlo, ch'è sol il nostro amore
Io vengo a domandar grazia
Perduto ben, mio sol tesor!
Sotto al mio piè si dischiuda la terra
Il Re!
Non pianger, mia compagna
Restate!
O signor, di Fiandra arrivo
Osò lo sguardo tuo penetrar il mio soglio
Backstage scene change and Introduction to Act III
Preludio
A mezzanotte, ai giardin della Regina
Al mio furor sfuggite invano
Trema per te falso figliuolo
Spuntato ecco il dì d'esultanza
Schiusa or sia la porta del tempio!
Nel posar sul mio capo la corona
Sire! Egli è tempo ch'io viva!
Deborah Voigt interview with Roberto Alagna
Duel scene rehearsal and Introduction to Act IV
Introduction: Ella giammai m'amò!
Dormirò sol nel manto mio regal
Il Grand'Inquisitor!
Nell'ispano suol mai l'eresia dominò
Giustizia, giustizia, Sire!
Ah! Sii maledetto, sospetto fatale
Pietà! Perdon! Per la rea che si pente
Ah! più non vedrò
Son io, mio Carlo
Per me giunto è il dì supremo
Che parli tu di morte?
O Carlo, ascolta
Mio Carlo, a te la spada io rendo
Tu che le vanità
Francia, nobile suol, sì caro a' miei verd'anni!
È dessa!
Ma lassù ci vedremo in un mondo migliore
Sì, per sempre!
