Applause for the new "I due Foscari" from La Scala: "Plácido Domingo is definitely THE Francesco of our time" (Financial Times). "It's a pleasure to see him back on stage. From now to eternity” (La Stampa). "One cannot but marvel at his tremendous musicality, his ageless vocal quality, his enviable stage presence" (Il corriere musicale)
Here is Plácido Domingo's final conquest: the baritone lead of Francesco Foscari in Verdi's atmospherically dark but melodically rich early opera, based on the drama of Lord Byron. In 15th-century Venice, 'I due Foscari' paved the way for Simon Boccanegra, and Domingo's triumph as Doge sealed his saintly Verdi status with the critically acclaimed new La Scala production.
