Just in: For unto Gus a child is born
mainNews from Glyndebourne of the safe delivery of a male child to chairman Gus Christie and his wife, the Australian-US soprano Danielle De Niese.
Statement:
Glyndebourne Chairman, Gus Christie, and his wife, soprano Danielle de Niese, are delighted to announce the birth of a son, their first child together.
The little boy was born on 4 June 2015. Both mother and child are doing well.
The couple, who met at Glyndebourne in 2005 when Danielle was starring in Giulio Cesare, married in 2009.
Our warm felicitations to the happy family.
Likely name? George, after Gus’s father, who died a year ago.
Wishing the new parents a life filled with many blessings and happiness. Lucky little Gus!
Not to diminish the role of a father (being one myself), but I believe the headline – much as I enjoy the play on words – properly belongs to Ms. De Niese, who had to deliver the little bundle of joy.
Yes, but “For unto Danielle a child is born” just doesn’t scan properly, ya know?
