Ranchera artist Alejandro Fernandez underwent knee surgery here to repair damage done last year in a skiing mishap in Colorado, his agents said.

His publicist said the two-hour procedure at a Guadalajara hospital was successful and that Fernandez “is very calm and is resting with his family around him.

The singer must undergo physical therapy for six weeks to strengthen his knee, but hopes to carry out the commitments for the performances he has scheduled for the Feb. 3-4 festivities in the city of Leon.
