The Canadian soprano Layla Claire and her husband, the US baritone John Chest, announce the birth of baby Matilda Claire.

All doing well.

Layla Claire is next on stage in Zurich as Elvira in March, then as Countess in Philadelphia’s Figaro a month later. John Chest sings Valentin in Berlin’s Faust next month, then on to the Count in Philadelphia’s Figaro. So the couple will be soon be together as Count and Countess.

Who’s babysitting?
