Richard J. Miller, president of The Metropolitan Opera Guild, has dubbed soprano Anna Netrebko an “authentic 21st-century superstar.” Few would disagree with that assessment or the choice of Netrebko as the honoree of the 84th Annual Guild Luncheon to be held Oct. 26, 2018.
Past honorees include Renée Fleming, Grace Bumbry, Mirella Freni, Sherrill Milnes, Renata Scotto, Jessye Norman, Kiri Te Kanawa, Marilyn Horne, Frederica von Stade, Plácido Domingo, and Franco Zeffirelli.
