The Royal Opera: Don Carlo trailer

Nicholas Hytner's production of Verdi’s epic historical opera evokes the passion, violence and religious repression of Renaissance Spain. Don Carlo returns to the Royal Opera House stage this summer. #RoyalOperaHouse

I think those trailers using footage from previous productions are misleading the public who may think they’re going to hear the singers they see in the trailer. Unfair isn’t it?

This trailer is from when this particular production was first performed. I would say around 15 years ago. It has been re- staged in the same style several times since then. I don’t think Rolando Villazon will be singing the title role this time the tenor singing Don Carlo this time is Brian Jagde.

If this is an old trailer - it would be disappointing to see a ‘modern costume’ version

[JGNEwgate]

Is this for real? Is this video from the past? Or the present? ‘Cause i really hope that mr rolando villazon can sing this role again as a huge fan of him !!
