Spanish tenor1 Placido Domingo is to undergo "preventive surgery" and will be unable to perform for the next six weeks, his spokesman has said.
西班牙男高音普拉西多·多明戈将要进行“预防性手术”,因此在未来的六个星期之内将不会登台演出。
Domingo, 69, sought medical assistance after suffering from abdominal(腹部的) pain during a performance in Tokyo recently.
He has pulled out of a London production of Handel's Tamerlano, which was scheduled to take place in March.
Nancy Seltzer said after the operation doctors will have a "better idea" when Domingo can return to his schedule.
Ms Seltzer would only describe the procedure as "medically recommended preventive surgery."
In a statement, London's Royal Opera House said: "After being in physical(身体的,物质的) discomfort3 and lower abdominal pain for over a week during his performances in Tokyo, Placido Domingo decided4 to return to New York for a complete physical check-up."
US tenor Kurt Streit, who was originally due to sing the role of Bajazet, is replacing Domingo.
Ticket-holders are being offered back 20% of their face value(票面价值) in the form of a credit note "in recognition of(按照,承认) the withdrawal5 of such an exceptional artist in a rarely performed opera".
