Soprano Angel Blue & Tenor Russell Thomas Lead Breathtaking Revival. One of the more frequent criticisms aimed at opera singers, by those not acquainted in any way with the art form, pertains to what it is, exactly, they do other than sing.

Anna Netrebko’s manager has responded to Peter Gelb’s latest comments regarding the diva in a May 2024 interview with Diapason. In a recent issue with the French magazine, Miguel Esteban, Netrebko’s manager said, “Peter Gelb insinuates that he has private information, but in reality, Anna Netrebko’s opinion on Putin and the war in Ukraine is public. In her March 30, 2022 statement, Anna Netrebko clarified that she was at arm’s length from Putin or the Russian government. She declared her opposition to the war on February 26, 2022, two days after the start of the conflict, and again on March 1 and 30, 2022. Anna Netrebko has stated that she loves her home country (even though she kept her word and has not set foot there since February 2022) but she has never used the words that Peter Gelb attributes to her (“I support my country.”).”
