The tenor was singing Tosca at Covent Garden when he took a blow to the face in the second act stage fight. Audience reports say he barely missed a beat, carried on singing and got stronger in the third act.

Brings tears to your eyes.

Let us know if you were there and noticed anything amiss.

 

Roberto Alagna, Paris, Nov 2011
