Legendary diva Raina Kabaivanska, who announced her farewell to opera her two years ago as the Countess in Queen of Spades, has changed her mind. The soprano has accepted the leading role in Nino Rota‘s opera buffa La scuola di guida (The Driving School), as a woman who falls in love with her driving instructor. The opera premiered in Spoleto in 1959, but has not been performed since.  The production will play in July at the Accademia Chigiana in Siena.
