The Wiesbaden May Festival reports that all tickets for Anna Netrebko’s two appearances in Nabucco on May 5 and 7 were scooped up online within a day of issue. The tickets were priced at 213.40 Euros.

State Theatre Director Uwe Eric Laufenberg acused the media of fomenting ‘moral hysteria’ against the Russian soprano. Laufenberg added: ‘Ms Netrebko was not guilty of anything. If we didn’t let everyone who said and did dubious things about Russia and Putin before 2014 perform anymore, it would be very empty here.’
