Zeljko Lucic will sing the title role in Verdi's Rigoletto this evening, replacing Roberto Frontali who is ill.

Earlier this season, Lucic sang the role of Germont in La Traviata, and next week he begins a series of performances of Il Trovatore, in which he sings Count Di Luna. He made his Met debut in 2006 and sang the title role in a new production of Verdi's Macbeth last season, which was transmitted into movie theaters worldwide as part of The Met: Live in HD series.

Riccardo Frizza conducts this evening's Rigoletto, with a cast that includes Diana Damrau as Gilda, Viktoria Vizin as Maddalena, Joseph Calleja as the Duke of Mantua, and Raymond Aceto as Sparafucile.
