An aria of regret by a prisoner wrongly considered a traitor by his friends and his beloved Elena. Arrigo laments the day of weeping and sorrow heralding "the reign of long, eternal and pointless suffering" for him. Celebrating the anniversary of Verdi's "I Vespri Siciliani" premiered 171 years ago today, here is @PlacidoDomingo with a potent rendition of the young patriot's lament.

Let’s add lots of harmony to this Sunday with @ArturoChaconC and Génesis Moreno in this beautiful duet from Bizet’s "Carmen". A wonderful memory from León last year.
The Spanish song about the painting of a mysterious dark-haired woman with sorrowful eyes was a moment when his compatriots made clear that their affection for @PlacidoDomingo is indestructible. "The best in history," yelled one spectator at Auditorio Nacional in Madrid five years ago today. We can't help but agree with him. And such exquisite guitar accompaniment by @PVillegasGuitar !
"La morena de mi copla", 9th June 2021.
Plácido Domingo performed in Schladming, Austria, together with the magnificent Slovak Philharmonic, Adriana Kučerová, and #Virtuosos-talent Teo Gertler.

One year ago: @ArturoChaconC singing “Donna non vidi mai” at the @PalacioOficial during the celebration of his 25th stage anniversary, sensitively conducted by Gaetano Lo Coco. What a dear memory 🎶❣️🎶
Looking forward to hearing him sing des Grieux in Manon Lescaut in Oviedo this December (11, 13, 16, 19)

Three years ago today in Strasbourg, it all began: @ArturoChaconC made his debut as Calaf in Turandot.
Since then, I’ve followed him to his performances around the world — 100+ by now — and I haven’t regretted a single second.
Thank you, Arturo, for all the unforgettable hours of music and emotion 🎶❣️🎶
A summer evening in the Alps and an animated open-air concert with @PlacidoDomingo . Here is a glimpse from the performance with guest soprano Adriana Kučerová and the Slovak Philharmonic under Rastislav Štúr at Planai Stadium in the Austrian town of Schladming. From "La Traviata" to "Granada" the public enjoyed every minute and many stayed on after the show to greet the Maestro, who signed autograph after autograph with a smile. Thank you for another lovely evening! Mexico next!

Can't wait for "Manon Lescaut" at @operaoviedo! @ArturoChaconC shines as Des Grieux, opposite @VanessaGoikoetxea as Manon. Their chemistry? Explosive – remember their fiery Tosca earlier this year at Baluarte? Pure passion awaits!

Today, on Corpus Christi, I'm sharing this deeply moving interpretation of “La roca fría del Calvario” by @ArturoChaconC from last week. For me, it beautifully expresses faith, reverence, and devotion.
Happy weekend! Enjoy life and music and sing along with @ArturoChaconC "El rey".
Featuring Roberto Berrocal at the piano and Mariachi México International.
I love rehearsals! Today, one year ago—sharing a few glimpses from the rehearsal of last year’s anniversary gala of @ArturoChaconC at the @PalacioOficial, conducted with great sensitivity by Gaetano Lo Coco.
If it's Sunday it's the Austrian Alps for the intrepid @PlacidoDomingo . Opera and zarzuela this evening in the idyllic mountain setting of Schladming after a series of acclaimed performances in Spain and Italy. Tonight it's the Planai Stadium with Slovak soprano Adriana Kučerová, and violin prodigy Theo Gertler as a special guest. Rastislav Stǔr is conducting the Slovak Philharmonic Orchestra. Toi toi toi!
