PLACIDO Domingo returned to the stage after cancer surgery to loud applause, and some dissenting boos, for his baritone role of Simon Boccanegra at Milan's challenging La Scala on Friday.
"La Scala is always La Scala. There were one or two people ... They are entitled to their opinion," Domingo said after the three-hour performance.
Most of the audience warmly applauded Domingo and the cast in Giuseppe Verdi's opera, throwing carnations on to the stage and emphasizing their appreciation at his return with whistles.
"I think for most people it was a really lovely evening," Domingo said.
"I really enjoyed it. He has a great voice," said Ana Pelucarte, an engineer from Venezuela.
Domingo had surgery to remove a malignant polyp from his colon in New York last month and has exhorted others to take tests for cancer earlier than he did to avoid similar problems.
