OPERA CONCERT: BRYN TERFEL, FREDERICA von STADE & PLACIDO DOMINGO — Bizet & Rodgers

At the 2002 Kennedy Center honors, Welsh bass-baritone *BRYN TERFEL* had fun with the audience (including Glenn Close) singing the ’Toreador Song’ from Bizet’s CARMEN, followed by European-American mezzo-soprano *FREDERICA von STADE* ( 3:10 “It’s a Grand Night for Singing“ from Rodgers & Hammerstein’s STATE FAIR) joined by Spanish tenor *PLACIDO DOMINGO,* all in tribute to honoree Maestro JAMES LEVINE (1943-2021). [And, yes, that’s Rudy Giuliani on stage at the end.]
