The Russian baritone came through his first recital in months last night, appearing in Toronto with Anna Netrebko and Yusif Eyvazov.

 

 

‘Spaseba,’ he posted afterwards. ‘It’s good to be back.’

    Good news! Are there any reviews on this recital yet available? Or has anybody of you attended the concert?

    Judging by the comments and clips on Facebook, he did more than just “come through”. The encore Ochi Chernye sounded as good ever.

    Already waiting for the next concert of our beloved, magical Dmitri Aleksandrovich in our city, of Toronto. Thousands thanks to the Producer- Svetlana Dvoretskaya for making my dream come true. I am still, processing it through my brain that I was really there on April 25 in our Opera House and saw this magnificent artist-Dmitri Hvorostovsky on stage with my own eyes. It was an unforgettable experience. One in a lifetime!

    Hi folks.
    I’ve been following Dmitri’s progress. Came across this clip, which shows him with his right arm in a sling, and looking unwell. He was presented with an award of some sort, spoke to the audience, then walked unsteadily offstage.

    I don’t speak or read Russian. Can someone please enlighten me/us?

    Cheers
    Steve
