Will the Met now normalise Anna Netrebko?

Will the Met now normalise Anna Netrebko?

Covent Garden removed her today from its Putin-sanctions list (Donald Trump is removing Putin from the list). Old pals are rallying round.

The Met originally sanctioned Netrebko for her early support of Putin’s Crimea adventures. But she will now be singing in Milan, Vienna, Paris, Berlin and London. Can the Met afford to maintain circuit isolation a the only major stage to exclude her?

Pictured: At Bulgarian State Opera last month with pal Sonya Yoncheva.
