Spring Brings International Stops for Ailyn Pérez

Soprano Ailyn Pérez is racking up the frequent flyer miles this spring. Ms. Pérez joined superstar tenor Plácido Domingo for concerts in Moscow and Qatar this February before singing the Schubert Mass No. 5 with the Netherlands Radio Chamber Philharmonic, conducted by Kees Bakels.
Later this month, Ms. Pérez appears as the Countess in Le nozze di Figaro on tour to Japan with the Salzburg Festival, with stops in Nagoya, Osaka, and Tokyo. Ms. Pérez makes a return to Opera Theatre of St. Louis, where she triumphed last season as Violetta in La traviata, to sing the Four Heroines in The Tales of Hoffman in May and June.

She finishes the summer at the Salzburg Festival, where she will sing Juliette to Rolando Villazón's Romeo in a production of Roméo et Juliette.
