Mikko Franck has dropped out of  Strauss’s Salome and Verdi’s Otello next week at the Vienna State Opera.

His last-minute replacements are Michael Boder, who conducted Salome there last year, and the British conductor Jonathan Darlington, 63, former music director of Vancouver Opera who made his Vienna debut as recently as 2014.
