Dominican tenor Francisco Casanova will make his debut at the prestigious Scala de Milan theater on 13 May in a Verdi opera conducted by Riccardo Muti. Casanova will play the role of Jacopo Foscari in ?I Due Foscari? with Italian baritone Leo Nucci. The show will be broadcast live on RAI television and will be seen in the Dominican Republic. This will be one of the most important career achievements of the tenor, who was born in El Seibo, in the east of the Dominican Republic. Casanova is also scheduled to perform in concerts this summer at the Metropolitan Opera House of New York.
