Anyone concerned about the outcome of the foot operation that kept Anna Netrebko out of La traviata at Covent Garden last week will be delighted to know that Anna is already back in heels and strutting her stuff as if nothing happened.
Together with Erwin Schrott, she was interviewed earlier today by the German TV host Thomas Gottschalk (here; starts at 13:30). Warning - it's not exactly Paxmanesque - they politely rebuff Heidi/Seal comparisons and patiently explain why Erwin doesn't get jealous when Anna sings with Jonas Kaufmann. But their responses are in English, which may help.
