Michael Fabiano Withdraws from Nov. 26 Performance of ‘Il Trovatore’ at the Metropolitan Opera
By Francisco SalazarThe Metropolitan Opera has announced a cast change for the Nov. 26.
Michael Fabiano took to social media and said that he would be withdrawing. He said, “Friends. I’m withdrawing again tonight. I really got hit last week. I’m still recovering and doing better but not in a place to deliver an optimal performance tonight. Appreciate your patience. I’ll be back shortly.”
This is the third performance that the tenor withdraws from. He withdrew halfway through the Nov. 17 performance and canceled the Nov. 22 show.
As a result, Arturo Chacon-Cruz will sing the role of Manrico.
The Nov. 26 performance is set to star Angela Meade, Olesya Petrova, and Igor Golaventko. Daniele Callegari conducts.
Fabiano is expected to return for the Nov. 30 performance, which will mark his final performance of the run.
