The second of nine programmes featuring performances by the great tenor, presented by Michael Oliver. Although Domingo is noted for the wide variety of his operatic repertoire, it is perhaps in the heroic Italian field that he has made his biggest mark. This performance of Verdi's Ernani was recorded live at La Scala, Milan, in December 1982. The opera - written in four acts to a libretto by Francesco Maria Piave after the drama by Victor Hugo - tells of the love of the outlawed Ernani for Elvira and of his vow to avenge the death of his father at the hands of the king, Don Carlo , who is also in love with Elvira.

In the year of composer Hans Werner Henze's birth, Puccini was working on Turandot, which some observers have suggested is the "last opera". Yet
Henze - 70 earlier this month - has devoted much of his stage career to reviving and restoring the grammar and stagecraft of opera. Brian Morton talks to the composer who says that all his music starts out from and returns to the theatre. With contributions from critics, directors and others in the operatic world.
