Anna Netrebko says she's pregnant
VIENNA, Austria (AP) -February 4, 2008 The 36-year-old star soprano and her fiance, Uruguayan baritone
Erwin Schrott, are expecting a child this autumn, Netrebko's
management company said Monday.
"We are both very, very happy that soon there will be three of
us," Netrebko said in a statement.
It will be her first child. She and Schrott, 35, became engaged
late last year in New York.
Netrebko is scheduled to perform in Massenet's "Manon," which
opens April 4 at the Vienna State Opera, and this summer with star
tenor Rolando Villazon in Charles Gounod's "Romeo and Juliet" at
the Salzburg Festival.
She "will keep her engagements as long as her doctors permit
it," said her manager, Jeffrey Vanderveen.
