The children’s choir of Bavarian State Opera have written to the minister of culture Markus Blume and to their music director Vladimir Jurowski demanding the reinstaement of acting chorusmaster Stellario Fagone, who was fired by the company management last week. No reason has been given.

Bavarian Radio has seen a copy of the children’s letter, extolling the ‘paternal role’ the Fagone cultivated in a ‘family and warm atmosphere.’

There could be further repercussions before the week is out
