The Kremlin awaits Jose Carreras


[Translation by Steve Ettinger. The original version follows this translation.]

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

On Sep 22nd, one of the celebrated "Three Tenors" will perform at the Kremlin State Palace (Moscow). The following day he will hold a press conference.

At the moment, the concert organizers are looking for appropriate duet partners for the star. The orchestra of The Bolshoi Theatre is expected to perform, although it is unclear at the moment whether or not it will be back from its tour of Seoul, Korea. David Gimenez will conduct.

The Spaniard will select the soprano himself. Unlike Montserrat Caballe', he is looking exclusively in The Bolshoi Theatre and The Chamber Orchestra under direction of Boris Pokrovsky. The organizers provided him with photos, videocassettes, and resumes of the most promising female singers.

The programme will be dominated by Verdi, after all, what tenor is really a tenor without him? But Carreras will also include selections from his latest album "Pure Passion."
