Placido Domingo is back singing in the USA
NewsPlacido Domingo gave a recital on Tuesday in Palm Beach.
The piano accompanist was his reguar conductor Eugene Kohn.
Jennifer Rowley joined him in some aria, and in a little dance.
This appears to have been Domingo’s first US stage appearance since he was barred from US opera houses in 2019 following a ciritical legal report on allegations of sexual harrassment against females.
Domingo writes: Wonderful to be back performing in the good old 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🏻😉❤️.
Was the mafioso Donald Trump in attendance perhaps?
Cue the Florida Man jokes. There couldn’t be a more fitting location – a stone’s throw from Mar-a-Lago, in the heart of Ron DeSantis’s Flori-duh.
Would be interested to know why Jennifer Rowley cast her lot with him.
Well i guess she’s afraid to say no to him. Who dares to say no to Domingo knowing that he’s the boss? The fact that his secret coming out after so many years tells you how much power this guy has. And she doesn’t seem too comfortable around him either. It’s sad to see some houses still accept him despite the confirmation from the musical guild that he has done such things.
Yes, good points. I think this is the same Palm Beach presenter that was still holding in-person concerts during one of the early Covid surges. It’s a whole other world down there.
How do you know what Jennifer Rowleys motivation is? You’re a gossip who’s tsls bollocks!
I can’t share your conclusion that she is feeling uncomfortable of I watch this video.
It looks to me like she is the initiator when it comes to holding his hand and leaning on him.

Oh yes, yes – his octogenarian buddy Muti is also touring Florida this week!
The two buddies LOVE FLORIDA!! It is understandable, Florida has a lot to offer to octogenarians. Warm weather, and overall a smashing time.
Though this is just a coincidence obviously!
Sad ending of a career.
It’s clearly not the end of his career. He been performing since this trial by media. Grow up you fuckwit!
I listened to the excerpt of the concert. Clearly an evening for the conoscenti. That noise he makes is just ghastly!! Has he perhaps lost his marbles?
Would that the disruptive nuts who destroyed the concert at the Concertgebouw had been present here.
“Conoscenti” is not exactly I’d use for the Palm Beach crowd. Perhaps benighted?
Would probably be welcome at Mar-a-Lago as well as at “The Villages” with all of the rabid MAGA geriatrics.
Lots of money. What’s not to love??!! But poorwe people still have their woke. That’s fair.
Al principio no creí en las denuncias. Luego me dí cuenta de la cadena de cuidado que existe. En Argentina estuvo implicado en un tema de secta sexual. Al principio todos sorprendidos, ahora nadie habla del tema. Obviamente los contactos del tenor son muy importantes. Debería dejar de ensuciar el arte lírico
Demasiado tarde. Es triste pensar que Plácido pudo haber dejado un legado honorable.
No entiendo que quiere decir “cadena de cuidado”. Domingo ha cantado e menudo en Buenos Aires, en el Colón incluso durante la guerra de las Malvinas. Entonces muchas cantantes cancelaron su presencia allí. Sobre el tema de la secta sexual quedó aclarado que solo conocía musicalmente a los detenidos, que siempre habían intentado captarlo y que no tenía nada que ver. Por eso no se habla del tema, porque no está ni siquiera investigado. Y esto no es por sus contactos o poder sino porque no hay ninguna prueba en su contra.
Por otro lado lo de EEUU la verdad no se sabrá nunca. Había muchos intereses en juego.
Even if he did all he is accused of doing, he remains one of the greatest tenors of the twentieth century, and overall among the greatest persons in the history of opera. His performances, including those still on the Met Opera site, are his legacy. Forgiveness remains a virtue.
Absolutely correct and well-stated, especially your final sentiment.
I take it you forgot about Caruso, Melchior, Pavarotti, Vickers, Bergonzi, Bjorling, Corelli etc. none of whom he can hold a candle to
Hang it up Placido! Are you singing bass yet?
