In the Thread: Tchaikovsky’s “Evgeny Onegin”
Post Subject: Renée Fleming as Onegin’s Tatiana.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 12/16/2006

Looking at the coming MET “Eugene Onegin” production on February 24 it would be very interesting to hear Renée Fleming as Tatiana. I always love when foreigners sings Russian repertoire, particularly if they are “really trying” and if they are somebody with Renée Fleming magnitude. In the end of 2000 Renée Fleming performed with Russian baritone Hvorostovsky the sequences of concert-staged scenes from “Eugene Onegin". Mark Elder led the Orchestra of St. Luke. I like the concert-staged performances generally but in this case it was more then good,  partially for the “grown up” Tatiana. Here it comes…







I will be waiting for the February 24 with my tail trammeling…
