    Jonas! Don’t be afraid to retire. It’s not as hard as you think. For Gott’s sake, you’re half way there already.

  • Philipp Lord Chandos says:

    Can we be confident that this is really COVID-19 and not the next variant?

    I mean given the kinetics of the pandemic and assuming Kaufmann was/is vaxed and/or has acquired immunity through previous infection(s).

  • Ragnar Danneskjoeld says:

    According to this statement Kaufmann has postponed his Paris concert from 10/9 to 11/4. That’s all it says.

    • Barney says:

      Thank you. Postponement is not the same as cancellation.

      Since the story doesn’t mention the venue, it’s the Théâtre du Châtelet and it’s a Puccini concert with Valeria Sepe, the Deutsche Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz, and Jochen Rieder.

      Repeat performances at the Konzerthaus Wien and at La Scala, Milan, where he’ll be performing with Ms Netrebko!

    Didn’t he just have Covid a month ago??

  • Erlkönig says:

    What has become of his engagement in Erl?

  • Harpist says:

    A month? For COVID? That seems quite long… I mean, we have vaccines and it’s not 2020 anymore.
