Lucy Crowe replaces Ekaterina Siurina for Rigoletto on Wednesday 11 April
Soprano to sing Gilda.
Lucy Crowe will replace the indisposed Ekaterina Siurina for the performance of Rigoletto on 11 April.
Lucy will also sing the role on 21 April, as previously announced. She made her debut in the role on 7 April.
The British soprano made her debut with The Royal Opera as Belinda in Dido and Aeneas in March 2009 and returned to sing the role of Sophie in Der Rosenkavalier. Other appearances include the aforementioned role of Sophie for Bavarian State Opera and in Berlin; Adina (The Elixir of Love), Poppea (Agrippina) and Drusilla (L’incoronazione di Poppea) for ENO and Mystery/Juno (The Fairy Queen) for Glyndebourne, in Paris and New York. Future plans include the title role in The Cunning Little Vixen for Glyndebourne and Servilia (La clemenza di Tito) at the Metropolitan Opera, New York.
And Lucy was brilliant in last night's Rigoletto [as was the rest of the cast]- well worth the trip up from Sussex
