The great Russian baritone will appear in four performances of Eugene Onegin at Covent Garden before resuming treatment for brain cancer in London, where he lives.

An ROH spokesman told a Russian website:

Хворостовский, которому диагностировали опухоль мозга, выступит в главной роли в первых четырех представлениях “Евгения Онегина” (19,22, 30 декабря и 2 января), а затем 3 января возобновит в Лондоне лечение”.

The Polish baritone Artur Ruciński will replace him in two subsequent performances.

We wish Dmitry a swift, successful outcome.

    The non translation of the Russian was really helpful Norm!

      “Hvorotovsky, who was diagnosed with a brain tumor, will perform the title role in the first four performances of ‘Eugene Onegin’ (19, 22 and 30 of December and 2 of January), and then resume treatment in London.”

      Норман, не каждый читает русской кириллицы, что хорошо!

        Still left untranslated ” where he lives” – it means that the Dmitrij ‘s cancer treatment will be undertaken in London – where he lives after mentioned dates of his 4 performances at Covent Garden in “E.Oniegin” by Tchaikovsky.
        We wish him all the best luck and coming back to the operatic scene – very soon!

    It’s Artur Ruciński, not “Ruchinski”
