Changes!

A press release from San Francisco Opera announces the following changes in the 2011-12 season:

• In Lucrezia Borgia, Francesco Meli "has withdrawn," replaced by Michael Fabiano.
• In Attila, Oksana Dyka and Ramon Vargas have both "had to withdraw," replaced by Lucrezia Garcia and Fabio Sartori. Note: the latter two singers are appearing in this opera right now at La Scala, conducted by Maestro Nicola Luisotti. Coincidence? I think not.
