Placido Domingo returns to his musical roots in a rare staging of Manuel Penella's El Gato Montes (The Wild Cat). Veronica Villarroel portrays the peasant girl, torn by her love for the dashing bandit, sung by Justino Diaz, and heroic matador Rafael, sung by Domingo. Jealous love, misplaced honour and noble revenge all form part of the Los Angeles Music Center Opera's porduction of El Gato Montes.
