Just in case you have been living under a bush for the last few months (one can say one thing for the MET: it's marketing department earns it's money. One would think sometimes there is only one opera house in the world - never mind the US), The 14th of May sees the Met broadcast - in HD as they keep telling us - their new production of Die Walkure.
