Donizetti's La fille du regiment
From the Metropolitan Opera, New York, Marco Armiliato conducts Juan Diego Florez as Tonio and Diana Damrau as Marie in Donizetti's comic opera.
In tonight's Live from the Met Diana Damrau stars as Marie, the daughter of the 21st regiment of the French army. She's in love with Tonio, but won't marry him because he's not in the regiment, so the only option is for him to enlist. Meanwhile, Marie's long-lost mother has other plans for her romantic future.
Donizetti's La Fille du R脙漏giment combines comedy with some famously virtuosic vocal writing, including Tonio's aria which includes no fewer than nine top C's, sung tonight by Juan Diego Fl脙鲁rez. And the production includes Kiri Te Kanawa in the speaking role of the Duchess of Krakenthorp.
Presented by Margaret Juntwait with guest commentator Ira Siff.
