I have looked at the information abbout the coproduction by David McVicar
and found that it will be used by Theatre de Champss Elysees already in
October. There Patricia Ciofi will sing both Poppea and Fortuna. Anna
Caterina Antonacci will sing Nero. At Palais Garnier she will sing Poppea,
where Jacek Lasczokowski will sing Nero. I guess as countertenor/malee alto,
but it could be tenor, because he seems to do both, and it's a part that has
been sung by sopranos, countertenors and tenors.

Berlin and Brussels will have to wait to a later season to see McVicar's
production.
