Elīna Garanča and Jonas Kaufmann in the Verismo combo pack at the State Opera

Star alert at the State Opera! Mezzo queen Elīna Garanča as Santuzza in the Rustic cavalry and Jonas Kaufmann, tenor god with a baritone timbre, as Canio in Clowns. Only Jonathan Tetelman’s house debut (as Turiddu) did not take place due to tracheitis.
