Anna Netrebko‘s current concert tour is scheduled at some point to include her first public performance of “In questa reggia” from Turandot, but it hasn’t happened so far. Tonight’s concert in Moscow did include some very attractive singing, though.

These unofficial clips have the advantage of an auditorium sound balance, in contrast to the miked concert last week in Munich.

The next stop on the tour is Prague, where Turandot’s aria is included on the preliminary program. We’ll find out later this week if what’s on the page matches up to what will be sung.
