Tenor flies from La Scala to attend birth of his child
OperaThe home of Italian opera had a last-minute cast change in Forza del Destino last night.
The US tenor Brian Jagde, himself a late substitute for Jonas Kaufmann, left Milan before last night’s performance to be present at the birth of his first child.
He’s expected back for his last performance on Thursday.

Absolutely goes without saying. Congratulations!
I watched “Forza” opening night on medici.tv He was booed during the final curtain along with Netrebko. His singing was loud and crude and her ‘Pace” aria was a disaster.
I love La Scala, Putin’s southmost opera theatre.
