Spanish opera tenor Placido Domingo is in hospital in Madrid after suffering a pulmonary embolism.

That's according to his U.S. publicist.

The singer was taken into hospital on Monday after getting a blood clot in his lung.

The 72-year-old tenor, who also serves as the general director of the Los Angeles Opera, is expected to make a full recovery.

But he has been forced to cancel five performances this month in the opera 'Il Postino' at the Madrid Royal Theatre.

It will also prevent him from conducting an orchestral performance in Madrid's Plaza Major planned for July 21.
