Once included in the Top 10 Sexiest Men Alive poll, the Spanish tenor has melted the hearts of women around the world with his rich, distinctive voice and swarthy Latin looks. His role this week as the tragic clown, Canio, in Pagliacci might not mean much to you, but if you're interested in seeing and hearing what opera's all about, then you could do far worse than getting down to the Piazza in Covent Garden or Victoria Park next Wednesday July 16 when a performance will be broadcast on giant screens. So cross your fingers for some balmy weather, grab a bottle of wine, a blanket and a good friend and head out for an evening of culture! Provided you like loud singing, that is. Pagliacci
