Conductor and tenor confront each other in court
OperaDramatic scenes this morning at the High Court in Copenhagen where the sacked Malmo Opera chief Michael Bojesen is suing the international singer Peter Lodahl over the leak of an incriminating email to a tabloid newspaper.
The email made reference, the court was told , to the breasts of a female colleague.
Lodahl, a lyric tenor, is now music director of the Copenhagen Philharmonic.
The court had to be cleared to deal with a crush of spectators.
This is Denmark’s Wagatha Christie moment.
Report here.
I am shocked, shocked. For a music site to cover everything from rape to assault to, now, mammaries. It’s too much for me to handle.
And I thought the Sun and the Mirror would do me in!
“Seigneur, ayez pitiè de moi.”
Not bein funni lyke but isnt there a song called thank’s for the mamories?
Breast leave it alone, Lpbv.
Any chance that someone could give the name of the colleague for purely research purposes…
“What mighty contests rise from trivial things” (Alexander Pope).
If one does not want one’s comments about a colleague’s physical characteristics to be circulated, then it is sheer folly to put them in an email.
Who even does email anymore?
It would be extra embarrassing if the breasts were man-breasts.
Pretty bad, if not pitiful behavior. This should never have escalated to a court case.
