Patricia Racette has withdrawn from upcoming Met performances of Alfano´s
Cyrano de Bergerac owing to an abdominal hernia. Jennifer Rowley will sing all of the performances. Toi toi toi to Jennifer Rowley and best wishes to Patricia Racette in recovering from the hernia! (This might require surgery....)
On the one hand--disappointed that I won't get to hear Pat again this season. On the other hand--glad to be able to cross this off my "to-see" list. No slight against Ms. Rowley, but this one's a tough sit for me. (If the Met wanted to reward Alagna with one of his pet pieces, why couldn't it be La Juive???)
