Baritone Amartuvshin Enkhbat returns to San Francisco Opera in the 2026–27 Season as Simon Boccanegra, one of Verdi’s most complex and demanding roles—a leader torn between public duty and private loss. This excerpt from Verdi’s Un Ballo in Maschera ( “Eri tu”) offers a glimpse of the dramatic power and depth he brings to the stage. We’re honored to welcome him back. | San Francisco Opera
