Fleming sang the role of the sorceress at the 1993 Rossini Festival in Pesaro, Italy, and repeated it in a concert performance at Carnegie Hall three years later.

Also back in the cast are Lawrence Brownlee (Rinaldo), John Osborn (Goffredo), Yeghishe Manucharyan (Eustazio), Kobie van Rensburg (Ubaldo) and Barry Banks (Carlo). Antonio Siragusa took over from Jose Manuel Zapata as Gernando, and the native of Messina stood out for his superior diction as the only Italian native in the cast.Click here for information on Elastic Straps - manufacturer, distributor, retailer and importer
