Stephen Costello Makes Glyndebourne Festival Debut Tonight
Stephen Costello makes his Glyndebourne Festival debut this evening, Thursday, June 9, performing the role of the peasant Nemorino in Donizetti's beloved bel canto comedy L'elisir d'amore (16 performances through August 4). Costello has sung the role in three previous productions, and undertakes it again this fall when he returns to the Vienna State Opera (Nov 8 - 18) for a second consecutive season. The tenor's new web site also makes its debut this week at www.stephencostellotenor.com. As well as introducing Costello's new blog, the web site offers features, interviews and photos, and it lists highlights of his 2011-12 season, notable among which is his portrayal of Lord Percy in Donizetti's Anna Bolena, opening the Metropolitan Opera's 2011-12 season on September 26 in a new production featuring Anna Netrebko in the title role.
