Watch: Soprano dislocates her knee, sings on to the end
OperaThe Swedish soprano Viktoria Karlsson, singing Zerlina in Don Giovanni at Malmo, gave a shriek in mid-aria as her kneecap got pushed out of its socket. She bravely clicked it back and sang on.
She plans to sing the rest of the run, through to mid-December.
They may have to readvertise the opera as Don Giova-knee.
Just shows you about today’s operatic productions and singers doing acrobatic gestures.
“Don Giova-knee”
…is that what we’re to expect from the site now? Groan worthy wit?
Well, she won’t be bending the knee any time soon.
Talk about suffering for your art, these Swedes are tough!
That took a lot. It’s very painful. I hope she recovers fully.
At least she didn’t slip a disc!
What a trooper!!
