Conductor James Levine has returned to New York and is having additional tests on his injured shoulder.

Levine, music director of the Metropolitan Opera and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, was hurt March 1 when he tripped on the stage at Boston’s Symphony Hall during ovations after a performance.

Although he did not break any bones, Levine, 62, may have rotator cuff damage. He canceled his next two performances with the orchestra and a U.S. tour that began Monday.

Levine’s next scheduled performance is Beethoven’s “Fidelio” on March 20 in New York. Met spokesman Peter Clark said there had been no change to Levine’s schedule.
