Met loses its second Aida star
OperaThe starry Georgian mezzo-soprano Anita Rachvelishvili (pictured) has pulled out of the rest of the Metropolitan Opera’s winter run of Verdi’s Aida.
Not feeling well, says the announcement (or words to that effect).
Her replacement is the less-known Russian Olesya Petrova.
It is less than two weeks since the Met was forced to replace Latonia Moore in the title role. She was also ‘indisposed.’
Must be something in the air-con.
