(ANSA) - MILAN, MAY 26 - Tomorrow at La Scala is a return 'home' for Anna Netrebko, who will be the protagonist of an unrecital with mezzo-soprano Elena Maximova, who has already been sold out for some time.
A return for the most famous Russian soprano in the world after the sabbatical months in which she canceled all her commitments (including Adriana Lecouvreur in Milan) at the outbreak of the war in Ukraine when she was criticized for not immediately taking distances from Vladimir Putin.
A distancing made later which resulted in the cancellation of some appointments in Russia.
So tomorrow there will be his first performance in Italy from the rentrée.
Yesterday his performance at the Paris Philharmonie was greeted with an ovation, and a standing ovation, with Le Figaro speaking of "great comeback".
"Every time I can sing at the Teatro alla Scala - he said - I feel like I'm going home. I have participated in so many shows and I have had the honor of being the protagonist of so many premieres in this mythical theater that holds a special place in my heart".
"After the disappointment of having had to give up the representations of Adriana Lecouvreur at the beginning of the year, I am particularly happy to give my first recital with piano at La Scala. I can't wait - he concluded - to share so much wonderful music with the passionate Milanese".
