On New Year’s Eve, the Metropolitan Opera will present the world premiere of The Enchanted Island, an original Baroque fantasy featuring music by Handel, Vivaldi, and Rameau, with a new libretto by Jeremy Sams inspired by Shakespeare.

On Sunday (12/18), they’re giving away a limited number of free tickets to a rehearsal on 12/28.

Details are available on the Met’s website:

Be among the first to see this extraordinary new work! 800 tickets to the Open Rehearsal on Wednesday, December 28 at 10:30am will be made available at the Met box office beginning Sunday, December 18, 2011, at noon on a first come, first served basis.
