Met Opera Announces Cast Change For Tonight's Tosca
By: Gabrielle Sierra
Roberto Alagna will make his Met role debut as Cavaradossi in tonight's opening performance of Tosca, replacing Marcelo Álvarez, who withdrew this afternoon due to the lingering effects of a cold.
Alagna, who is at the Met performing Don José in Carmen, agreed to step into the role of Cavaradossi, which he has sung to acclaim at many leading houses, including the Royal Opera.
Tosca, conducted by Marco Armiliato, also stars Sondra Radvanovsky in the title role and Falk Struckmann as Scarpia.
