The Finnish star Karita Mattila is renowned for aways showing up.

Last night, however, she cancelled Janacek’s Jenufa in the composer’s home town of Brno ‘due to a sudden health indisposition.’

We wish her better.

    She was in great form the night before (as was the rest of the cast) even applauding the masked audience at her stormy ovations. Maybe back-to-back performances didn’t agree with her.

    Getting older, even she…

  • Pedro says:

    She is a superb artist and she cancelled two performances I had tickets to. Manon Lescaut at the Met and the Alterberg-lieder in Salzburg.

    God, we miss Karita in New York!

    A wonderful singer! I wish her only the best.
