| Simon Keenlyside and Krassimira Stoyanova |
If you're in the U.K., you can watch a new production of Tchaikovsky's
Eugene Onegin with the ageless barihunk Simon Keenlyside as Onegin and soprano Krassimira Stoyanova as Tatyana. The opera from the Royal Opera House was broadcast yesterday under the baton of Robin Ticciati. The opera is introduced by Kasper Holten who makes his debut as stage director at the ROH. Because it's a BBC iPlayer telecast, it's only available in the United Kingdom. The broadcast is available until April 19th.
Regardless of where you are, you can always listen to the BBC radio
online with their generous offering of opera.

| Mariusz Kwiecien |
Next up at the Royal Opera House is barihunk Mariusz Kwiecien as Rodrigo, Marquis of Posa in Verdi's Don Carlo. The cast also includes the riveting Ferruccio Furlanetto as Philip II and hunkentenor Jonas Kaufmann as Don Carlo. Most performances are sold out or nearly sold out, so order your tickets
online today.
And if you're in the USA, you may be able to see it in a cinema in the next few weeks.
