For any opera singer, one performance may be enough to place a strain on her vocal cords. however what concerning playing 2 major roles within the same day?
On weekday at the Metropolitan Opera the mezzo-soprano Elizabeth Bishop can lend her voice not solely to the theatrical performance production of Poulenc’s “Dialogues of the Carmelites” as Mother Marie, however she's going to conjointly step into the role of Fricka for the the eight p.m. performance of Wagner’s “Das Rheingold.” Stephanie Blythe, WHO was to sing the role, has fallen unwell.
According to the Met, a twin performance of this type could be a rarity. It aforementioned that the foremost recent example at the Met was once the tenor Marcello Giordani Panax quinquefolius in Berlioz’s “Damnation DE Faust” and Puccini’s ”Madama Butterfly” in 2008. Before that, the Met’s last recorded instance of the twin bill was in 1961.
