Spanish tenor Placido Domingo is still 'the king of opera', headlining France's oldest musical festival at the age of 78. FMTNews

Spanish tenor Placido Domingo performs on stage during a 2015 concert at the Starlite in Marbella, Spain.

“Since it was unimaginable that he could possibly be singing for much longer after an unmatched Met career that was soon to span four decades of starring roles,” Gelb told AFP, “one of the responsibilities I was preparing for was Placido’s farewell.” Indeed the singer, who was one of the Three Tenors alongside Luciano Pavarotti and Jose Carreras, set a new record in May by singing his 151st role.But Domingo knows he has to look after himself, cancelling interviews after rehearsals on Friday in the southern French town of Orange to preserve his voice having recently pulled out of appearing in “La Traviata” in Munich.
