In the middle of the first act of a packed English National Opera performance of Donizettiâs âLucia di Lammermoorâ on Saturday, a chest infection claimed the voice of the bass Clive Bayley, who was singing the leading role of Raimondo, Luciaâs tutor. Could the show be saved? Yes indeed, Reuters reported. Out from the audience came Paul Whelan, 38, who just happened to have been studying the role and was scheduled to take over from Mr. Bayley in a few weeks, through he had had no chance to rehearse. As the performance continued, Mr. Whelan sang from the wings and Mr. Bayley mimed the action. At the conclusion Mr. Whelan, wearing suit and tie, joined the cast for a bow onstage, above. The performers received a standing ovation. âIâm just so glad I was wearing my Armani tie,â he said.
