Beloved American soprano Renee Fleming stars as Tatiana with Russian baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky in the title role of Tchaikovsky's lyrical Eugene Onegin . The sweeping dramatic arc of the opera - youthful longing, rejection, regret, a desperate plea that comes too late - is mirrored perfectly in Tchaikovsky's achingly beautiful music. The cast includes Elena Zaremba as Olga, Ramon Vargas as Lenski and Sergei Alexashkin as Prince Gremin. Valery Gergiev conducts. (Available in HD.)
