You’ve got to admit that the Met had a lot of guts to dedicate this season’s performances of Vincenzo Bellini’s NORMA (libretto by Felice Romani) to the memory of Maria Callas on the 100th anniversary of her birth.

But Yoncheva--and her costars--pulled off the performance with aplomb and made the Met audience very happy indeed.
