Tenor Adam Klein is a regular at New York’s Metropolitan Opera as well as appearing internationally in an expansive breadth of repertoire. His first appearance at the Met was as a child in the role of the young boy, ‘Yniold’ in Debussy’s Pelléas et Mélisande in 1971, and this past summer he stepped in as Tristan in Seattle Opera’s production of Tristan and Isolde.
