SUMMARY:Live on Screen | Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin at Highlands PAC
DESCRIPTION:Following her acclaimed 2024 company debut in Puccini’s Madama Butterfly\, soprano Asmik Grigorian returns to the Met as Tatiana\, the lovestruck young heroine in this ardent operatic adaptation of Pushkin. Baritone Igor Golovatenko reprises his portrayal of the urbane Onegin\, who realizes his affection for her all too late. \nThe Met’s evocative production\, directed by Tony Award–winner Deborah Warner\, “offers a beautifully detailed reading of Tchaikovsky’s lyrical romance” (The Telegraph).

SUMMARY:Balsam Range at Highlands PAC
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating its 18th year together\, bluegrass juggernaut Balsam Range is charging headlong as the group enters a new\, promising chapter of its vast\, ever-evolving musical career. The group: Caleb Smith (guitar\, vocals)\, Tim Surrett (bass\, dobro\, vocals) Alan Bibey (mandolin\, vocals) and banjoist Marc Pruett—is not only releasing new music\, but once again are hitting the road\, touring majestic theaters and backwoods gatherings—all in the name of bluegrass music. 2026 also brings a special guest on board to many shows across the nation\, Kentucky native Don Rigsby. On fiddle and vocals\, Rigsby brings that familiar “high lonesome sound” to the mix and is backed by an impressive resume\, making him a seamless addition to the group. Formed in 2007 by mere happenstance\, Balsam Range came together during an informal kitchen jam session in the rural depths of Western North Carolina. What started as friends gathering to pick a tune or learn a new song ultimately led to gigs being booked\, this trajectory quickly taking shape of a band on the run to its dreams.

SUMMARY:Gabriela Lena Frank / Libretto by Nilo Cruz's El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego at Highlands PAC
DESCRIPTION:PAC’s Live On Screen Series \nAmerican composer Gabriela Lena Frank makes her Met debut with her first opera\, a magical-realist portrait of Mexico’s painterly power couple Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera\, with libretto by Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Nilo Cruz. Fashioned as a reversal of the Orpheus and Euridice myth\, the story depicts Frida\, sung by leading mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard\, leaving the underworld on the Day of the Dead and reuniting with Diego\, portrayed by baritone Carlos Álvarez. The famously feuding pair briefly relive their tumultuous love\, embracing both the passion and the pain before bidding the land of the living a final farewell. Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts the Met premiere of Frank’s opera\, a “confident\, richly imagined score” (The New Yorker) that “bursts with color and fresh individuality” (Los Angeles Times). \nThe vibrant new production\, taking enthusiastic inspiration from Frida and Diego’s paintings\, is directed and choreographed by Deborah Colker\, following her remarkable 2024 debut staging of Ainadamar.
