Item: Placido Domingo

While discussing Nabucco, Placido Domingo was asked how many roles, including conductor, he had appeared in at the Met. Looking through the archives, I count 62.  Notice 7 debuts in 1971.  He finished his long illustrious career at the Met on April 13, 2019, with Germont in La Traviata.
