Anna Netrebko has signed up for a Rome Opera debut to be conducted by its music director and directed by his daughter Chiara. It will be the first time Anna works with any of the Muti family.

Chiara, 40, a film and theatre actress who is married to the French pianist David Fray, has only recently turned to directing.

      Netrebko will most probably cancel anyway, so why bother checking her diary at all?

      I think this means she *signed up* in September (2013) for the three Feb./March 2014 performances.

      That was, of course, a short lead-time, but the Italian houses plan on the basis of a shorter horizon.
