Cancellation
Dear friends,
for family reasons, I am forced to cancel my participation in the production of Verdi's "La forza del Destino", which will open the Teatro alla Scala's 2024/25 season on December 7th. I have already had the privilege of attending this extraordinary Italian cultural event several times, so I am all the more sorry to miss this special event, and to disappoint the audience and my colleagues this time. Nevertheless, I hope for your understanding - especially in a country where family is still very important.
