‘Pelléas et Mélisande’ Returns to the Met Stage

Over the course of his composing career, Claude Debussy only wrote one opera: Pelléas et Mélisande. On Saturday, you can hear it for yourself during its return to the Met Opera stage for the first time in almost 10 years. Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts the orchestra, and Paul Appleby and Isabel Leonard take their turns in the title roles.
