Why Danielle De Niese pulled out of Glyndebourne
OperaWhen the mistress of Glyndebourne cited ‘a conflicting engagement’ as her reason for ducking out of the coveted role of Blanche this summer in Poulenc’s Dialogue des Carmelites, eyebrows shot up all across Sussex and beyond. What could possibly have prevailed on the wife of Glyndebourne’s owner to let the festival down?
All can now be revealed.
Danni is to star in a West End revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Aspects of Love, opposite Michael Ball.
Poor old Poulenc never stood a chance against the bright lights of Piccadilly.
