One of the most striking productions in recent Met history, Phelim McDermott’s visionary take on Philip Glass’s Satyagraha is now available on DVD. The opera, which stars tenor Richard Croft as Gandhi, follows the 20th century trailblazer as he developed his philosophy of non-violent resistance in South Africa between 1896 and 1913. Dante Anzolini conducts this astonishing 2011 Live in HD transmission.

Bonus features include Backstage at the Met: Interviews with Philip Glass, Richard Croft, Donald Palumbo, Julian Crouch, Phil Eddolls, and Rob Thirtle.
