Metropolitan Opera Summer Recital

The Metropolitan Opera presents its annual summer recital series at Stapleton Waterfront Park, featuring rising stars Tessa McQueen (soprano), Hannah Jones (mezzo-soprano), and Sunghoon Han (bass-baritone) with pianist Mariam Bombrun. This free outdoor performance will include beloved arias and ensembles from operas such as Mozart’s *Le Nozze di Figaro*, Bizet’s *Carmen*, and Puccini’s *La Bohème*. The event celebrates the Met’s commitment to bringing opera to diverse communities across New York City. Attendees are encouraged to bring blankets or lawn chairs for this picturesque waterfront performance under the stars. The Stapleton Waterfront Park, part of Staten Island’s revitalized North Shore, provides a stunning backdrop for this cultural event.
