Domingo sings tonight with his son, two pals and a Hungarian prodigy
mainThe singer will appear tonight in Szeged with Placido Domingo Jr, the US soprano Ana Maria Martinez, a 15 year-old local pianist Soma Balázs-Piri and an orchestra conducted by Eugene Kohn.
Although Domingo is untouched in Europe by an AP sexual harrassment report, demands are being heard in the US that he should voluntarily withdraw from the Met’s revival of Verdi’s Macbeth, where he is scheduled to appear on September 25, opposite Anna Netrebko.
The Met says it is waiting on LA Opera’s investigation of the AP charges before confirming his participation, but the date is drawing near and the uncertainty is doing no-one any good – least of all the Met box-office.
Domingo, 78, shows no sign of stepping down.
