Domingo is everlasting!
by KCLoring on 5/3/18Boch Center Wang Theatre (formerly Citi Performing Arts Center) - BostonIt's been my lifelong dream to see him in concert, but I don't get to NYC often. When I saw he was going to do a concert performance vs. full length opera in Boston, I thought really hard about it. It was a lot of money. My husband sported me 2 center orchestra tickets for my birthday! Money well spent. Placido may be 77, but you'd never know it. Vocally, he has still has it and then some. Sure, maybe he can't do those wicked high notes like the end of Nessun Dorma now, but who cares! The beauty of his voice is that he always had that baritone quality to his tenor. So much richer and gorgeous than many tenors who sound like they're going to bust a gut in the upper registers. It was a wonderful evening, complemented by Placido Jr and the two sopranos. If you get the chance to see him in concert, don't wait. Just go. You won't be disappointed.
