The conductor Jesús López Cobos has launched an appeal against the court ruling that he was not slandered by Gerard Mortier and the Real Theatre over the ending of his period as music director.

The lower court ruled that a conductor, as a public figure, should be prepared to accept different opinions and a degree of criticism.

The maestro, evidently, disagrees. He insists it’s a matter of honour.
