The maestro returns

In 2015, Zubin Mehta and the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Beijing worked together on a production of Verdi's classic opera Aida. Along with the China NCPA Orchestra, China NCPA Chorus, and a lineup of international artists, the conductor had an unforgettable experience.

"It was the best Aida that I ever did," says Mehta, who conducted Giuseppe Verdi's opera many times in his long career, including a version he did with the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City in 1965.
