Message from the tenor Juan Diego Florez, one of the most reliable on the circuit:

I am very sorry that unfortunately I have to cancel the revival production of Rossini’s Guillaume Tell at the @wienerstaatsoper because of a persistent cough, due to an ongoing tracheitis. I was looking forward so much to singing again the role of Arnold, and I am sorry for all the fans who would be disappointed by this cancellation.
